Rooting out racism requires a multi-tiered approach. Some are treating the schools. Others are treating the workplaces. They’re all treating each other. But it will take everyone standing up and speaking out to heal racism’s harms.
Nursing — after all — is shared work.
With your help, we’re not just sharing a film — we’re sparking a health justice movement. One screening, one conversation, one nurse at a time.
This film was made to be a rallying cry, reminding us that healing from racism in healthcare is a collective responsibility that transcends individual professions and identities. Add your voice to help us spread it far and wide.
It takes all of our voices to make a difference. #StartYourShift
