“It’s so important to learn the context into which you are entering.” — Ndidi Amutah

White women / Black men: what’s driving the difference in life expectancy between these two groups? Native American youth are dying at higher rates of suicide compared to the general population. Why? And how can storytelling, activism, and empowerment make a difference on these issues?

Foossa’s David Colby Reed and leesean Huang interview Ndidi Amutah about health disparities and equity and multidisciplinary approaches to design for these issues.

Listen to the interview at Foossa.com/podcast, or on Apple Podcasts.
