Black Men in White Coats

Documentary Screening

This Black History Month, we are proud to present the documentary, "Black Men in White Coats," which explores the disparities and systemic barriers preventing Black men from becoming medical doctors.

Fewer black men applied to medical school in 2014 than in 1978. With only 2% of American doctors being Black men, this comes as no surprise. Healthcare accounts for nearly 20% of the United States GDP and a significant portion of that is driven by disparities in a system that lacks diverse physicians. What if we had a medical workforce that actually reflected our patient population? What challenges do young black men face? Who are their role models? Why is it easier to visualize a Black man in an orange jumpsuit than it is in a white coat? What's happening in society that more Black women are becoming doctors while Black men are stagnant? Whose fault is it? It is time to end this crisis and get more BLACK MEN IN WHITE COATS.

Join us for a 3-day screening of the documentary, "Black Men in White Coats."
