AMWA Diversity Dialogues is an interdisciplinary podcast that is designed to promote diversity of thought through unfiltered and honest conversations about all topics related to diversity and inclusion, that highlight the disparities and inequities in medicine and population health and what we can do about it.
In this episode of the American Medical Women's Association Diversity Dialogues, we are joined by Garrett Davis, a renowned playwright whose works shine a spotlight on critical medical issues such as Alzheimer's and prostate cancer. Garrett's plays uniquely present these topics from the perspectives of those affected, including patients, family members, caregivers, and doctors, while also providing valuable educational insights. With a primary focus on the African American community, Garrett and his team travel across the country to perform these impactful plays, fostering engagement with local communities and health organizations. Join us as we explore how theater can be a powerful tool for health education and advocacy.
