In this episode we tackle the topic of discrimination in healthcare. Specifically, we talk about how healthcare has been inaccessible to people of colour and women and also about how that history of inaccessibility has created an environment where those groups are not represented in the healthcare industry nor get appropriate healthcare. We mention the Flexner report, lack of diversity in research, and the act of psychologizing pain and illness, as well as a small sprinkle of queer history in the form of James Barry.
