We're still learning and we're not really the right spokespeople for this subject. However, we also know a podcast about rare disease would be incomplete if we didn't discuss the racism and inequalities Black people in the US face. We're posted a short episode with a brief overview of some of the ways our healthcare system doesn't serve Black people in the US. We encourage you to follow other resources and hope to one day expand further on these topic individually.
