'The Price of Exclusion' explores lasting impact of racial inequality in medicine

Nicole Carr's book "The Price of Exclusion" dives into the long-lasting effects of racial inequality in medicine, tracing how Black physicians' efforts to establish hospitals and schools in the South were dismantled by systemic policies and segregation. Carr's personal connection to this history underscores how these historical exclusions continue to affect healthcare access and quality today. Her work highlights the ongoing struggle for equitable medical care and shines a light on the need for systemic changes to address these deep-rooted disparities.
