Decolonizing Science is a grassroots organization and podcast run entirely by a black scientist currently obtaining their PhD in the field of biological sciences. The goal is to bridge the gap between activism and science by educating underprivileged communities and everyday people. The topics Decolonizing Science seeks to shed light on are environmental racism, health disparities and discrimination in the medical and research fields. We need to deconstruct colonial ideologies that have dictated and defined our understanding of science and medicine.

Discussing the Experiences Black Patients in the Medical Setting with Tamorah Lewis
<p>In this episode I speak with Tamorah Lewis, a black neonatal pharmacologist about the "systematic de-prioritization" of black patients as she calls it. We discuss how racism ties to the health of black populations, specifically black mothers and children in this country. We also discuss why there is sometimes push back in conversations about racism in medicine, and how this is not only harmful, but preventable once we learn to be committed to antiracism through education and greater understanding of each other. </p> <p>For podcast information and sources visit:</p> <p>https://www.decolonizingscience.org</p> <p>To support Decolonizing Science:</p> <p>Venmo: @decolonizingscience</p> <p>CashApp: $decolonizingscience</p>
