SUMMARY:Power to Heal - Movie Night- Celebration of Juneteenth
DESCRIPTION:Whole Washington is proud to host an online screening of Power to Heal June 16th @6pm in celebration of Junteenth! \nAbout the film: \nPOWER TO HEAL is an hour-long public television documentary that tells a poignant chapter in the historic struggle to secure equal and adequate access to healthcare for all Americans. Central to the story is the tale of how a new national program\, Medicare\, was used to mount a dramatic\, coordinated effort that desegregated thousands of hospitals across the country in a matter of months. \nBefore Medicare\, disparities in access to hospital care were dramatic. Less than half the nation’s hospitals served black and white patients equally\, and in the South\, 1/3 of hospitals would not admit African-Americans even for emergencies. \nUsing the carrot of Medicare dollars\, the federal government virtually ended the practice of racially segregating patients\, doctors\, medical staffs\, blood supplies and linens. POWER TO HEAL illustrates how Movement leaders and grass-roots volunteers pressed and worked with the federal government to achieve justice and fairness for African–Americans. \nThrough the voices of the men and women who experienced disparities and fought against them\, POWER TO HEAL will introduce a broad\, prime-time national audience on PBS to a missing link in the Civil Rights Movement — a struggle over healthcare from a half-century ago\, that raises questions that resonate today: is healthcare a human right? Must the federal government intervene to ensure equality? \nPlease RSVP below to receive the Zoom link. \n \n\nSpread the word:
