Raising Awareness Around Systemic Racism and Gender Inequality with Jay McAllister
Why are minoritized groups not monoliths? How can growing up in multiracial environments shape one’s perspective on society?
In this series on healthcare and social disparities, Dr. Jill Wener, a board-certified Internal Medicine specialist, meditation expert, and tapping practitioner, interviews experts and gives her own insights into multiple fields relating to social justice and anti-racism. In this episode, Jill interviews Jay McAllister, an active participant and board member of CollaborAction, a theater company designed to use art as a medium to raise awareness and evoke change in the world around issues such as systemic racism, gender inequality and other difficult to discuss topics. They discuss his journey to finding his voice about race related issues and his unique challenges to use his platform for change.
