Eugene S. Farley, Jr. Health Policy Center UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO ANSCHUTZ MEDICAL CAMPUS Public Health Ethics & Law Program colorado school of public health FARLEY HEALTH POLICY LECTURE: SCORCHING IRONY: HOW WE CAN LEVERAGE THE POLITICAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH It's long been clear that societal forces affect health, from neighborhood design to school quality to the selection of products on sale in our corner stores. The places where we live, work, learn, and play shape our health in ways far more powerful than what we experience in the doctor's office. But what's behind those forces? Daniel Dawes, a renowned scholar and attorney, will discuss the political determinants of health, exploring how relationships, resources, policies, and power structures exert enormous influence on our environments. In this lecture, he'll discuss how the political determinants of health have exacerbated inequities in the U.S. and share ideas for more equitable policymaking and a healthier country.

There are only four HBCU medical schools in the country. Institutions like my alma mater, Meharry, are crucial in the fight for health equity in this country.
