SUMMARY:Sick and Tired of Being Sick and Tired: Putting an End to Separate and Unequal Health Care
DESCRIPTION:Fifty years after the Civil Rights Act of 1964\, access to health care remains separate and unequal. Decades of empirical research suggests that racial bias in health care is one of the root causes of disparities in health between African Americans and Caucasians. This symposium\, called “Sick and Tired of Being Sick and Tired: Putting an End to Separate and Unequal Health Care in the United States 50 Years After the Civil Rights Act of 1964″ and sponsored by The Law Medicine Center Symposium and The Case Western Center for Reducing Health Disparities\, will focus on racial bias in health care and the resultant health disparities.   \nSpeakers will include Dr. David Barton Smith (author of Health Care Divided: Race and Healing a Nation)\, retired Ohio State Senator Ray Miller\, and Dr. Mary Frances Berry (Geraldine R. Segal Professor of American Social Thought and Professor of History\, University of Pennsylvania).   \nSee the event website for registration\, more information\, and a complete list of speakers.
