The untold story of how the twin struggles for racial justice and healthcare intersected: Creating Medicare and desegregating thousands of hospitals at the same time.

It stands as an extraordinary correction to the collective amnesia about race and health and a deeply considered tribute to the struggles for racial justice forged by so many during the implementation of Medicare.

A must-see that addresses the social as well as physical healing ushered in with Medicare. Expanding that program with SINGLE PAYER can only accelerate this progress!
