Description

A searing polemic that reveals how racism and colonialism have shaped science and medicine, leading to the health inequalities we see today. Annabel Sowemimo reinserts the stories of Black and Indigenous scientists and doctors into the historical narrative, reframing our understanding of the 'objective' systems we operate within. By confronting this history, she argues for urgent change and a better understanding of our collective past.
