This keynote addresses the rising backlash against Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives and how they directly threaten healthcare equity. As healthcare organizations face growing resistance to DEI, we’ll explore these initiatives' critical role in ensuring equitable care for marginalized communities. Learn how healthcare systems can combat this resistance and commit to inclusive, patient-centered care that recognizes and addresses health disparities.

In this powerful keynote, we’ll explore how cultural traditions and digital health technology's rapid rise shape Black women’s health journeys. From generational knowledge passed down by ancestors to navigating modern health apps and telemedicine, this talk highlights Black women's unique challenges and opportunities in achieving digital health literacy. We’ll dive into ways healthcare professionals can bridge the digital divide, improve health outcomes, and ensure culturally competent care through accessible and equitable tech solutions.
