In recognition of the 400th anniversary of the arrival of more than 20 Africans in Virginia, who were subsequently sold into bondage, Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health organized talks and events on October 14 to educate and engage our community on how this history continues to shape health inequalities and how public health can be a lever to change the status quo.
For more information on the commemoration, including readings and community events view the schedule and watch our video, 400 Years of Inequality: A Call to Action.
There are additional events scheduled throughout the Fall. Visit the Mailman website.
