Grief is multi-faceted. It comes in waves. Can be applied to the loss of a loved one or loss of a job. Is felt my #cancer survivors as they mourn losing faith in their body. See this brief #DrWinkfield #Facebook post on how to manage #grief facebook.com/share/p/ETXoNT…

So surreal to be sitting here about to view this documentary film that I had the honor of being a part of. American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network & Black Voters Matter Fund partnered with film director, Ashley O’Shay, to tell the story of families caught in the gap in the 10 states that have not expanded #medicaid

There are still 10 states that have not expanded #Medicaid. Why? Don’t all #Americans deserve to have the most basic #healthcare needs met?? Please join us tonight for the very first virtual screening event for the landmark film “In Due Season”

I was today years old when I learned that the director of the US U.S. EPA is black 🤯 Michael S. Regan was sworn in as the 16th Administrator of the US #Environmental Protection Agency in 2021. He’s at CBCF Inc. #ALC53 discussing #EnvironmentalJustice 💕 North Carolina A&T

The hazards of #priorauth are impacting patient care. #Radoncs bear an undue burden which means #cancer patients suffer!! Proud of rockstar Vanderbilt Radiation Oncology resident Jayden Gracie for getting this masterpiece over the finish line. Hope insurers take note #DoBetter #advocacymatters
