Listen "Episode 24 - Leveraging Narrative Medicine to Cultivate Antiracist Praxis"
Episode Synopsis
This episode highlights the ways in which we might leverage stories, at the individual and structural levels, to reimagine medicine with a liberatory practice. During this episode, we hear from Zahra Khan, an educator and editor who has written extensively on abolition in medicine, and Dr. Sayantani DasGupta, a physician-educator, prolific children's book author and faculty at the Center for the Study of Ethnicity and Race and the Institute for Comparative Literature and Society at Columbia University. Together, our guests offer context around how the medical and carceral systems are deeply intertwined and go hand-in-hand. Further, they expand on this to discuss how we might use stories in the form of visionary and speculative fiction to reimagine new landscapes of health care. This discussion is hosted by Sudarshan Krishnamurthy and Ashley Cooper. The show notes for this episode were written by Sudarshan Krishnamurthy.
