GEA/MAPIPA: New Podcast Episode! Racial Disparities & COVID-19: Creating Communities of Opportunity

The Brain Architects Podcast: COVID-19 Special Series

While the current coronavirus pandemic is affecting all of us, it isn't affecting all of us equally. As we work together to try and halt the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, we must also understand why some of us are more likely to be affected than others, and what all of us can do about it.

In the third episode from a special COVID-19 series of The Brain Architects podcast, host Sally Pfitzer speaks with Dr. David Williams, professor of Public Health at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and professor of African and African American Studies at Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences, to discuss ways in which the coronavirus pandemic is particularly affecting people of color in the U.S., and what that can mean for early childhood development.
