Discovered Truth: A Health Care Journey discusses black barriers to healthcare due to racism, distrust, and slavery and how that effects racial health disparities now.
Historically the African American community has been under and uninsured. The historic road to health insurance is rooted in isolation but changes in society and the Affordable Care Act itself carries some surprises for consideration and action. Produced with MNSure and the Stairstep Initative.

This was excellent presentation and information. The cold hard truth still brings tears and a certain type of feeling of being in this country.

The thing that gets me about these type of documentaries is how they talk about black people being enslaved in the past. Blacks are still enslaved today and they are still discriminated against and experimented upon by the medical community. The WHITE POWER STRUCTURE never stops its evil doing and misdeeds. It just CHANGES the way they exercise it, and I think this confuses most blacks to believe that things have gotten better or gone away. Well, you've got another thought coming. What I don't understand is why black and brown people won't just come together as a people and build their own institutions and deal with each other so they don't have to worry about being mistreated and harmed by other groups and their systems. I don't understand why they go in circles doing the SAME THING they've alwsys done to no avail, and APPROPRIATELY confront their situation.

@@deedydiy4041The interesting thing is that the Slave Owners had a vested interest in making sure that their Slaves were taken care of when they got sick or injured. After all the plantation was a business and when your property is not functioning that is a problem.

I feel so sorry for my people how they we treated. Because of this we should be more respectful to each other. In today’s world if you are not wearing a Wig even your own black people will look at you crazy. Since when do we get so ashamed of our own hair and features it’s sad 😢. Black women should be proud of everything about themselves including their hair texture and wear it with pride. But instead they are wearing these long wigs and sadly the whole world knows it’s a wig. Sisters love yourselves and accept your ethnicity because it’s beautiful. If really nice to see the women on this platform wearing their own hair it’s beautiful.❤ Black men have gone as far as to shave their heads to get rid of their hair how sad. And the relaxers Why??

Correct. Everywhere I look black women are wearing braids three inches from the ground, fake eyelashes, blond wigs, bonnets, fake nails and excessive make-up. It's very sad. Most BW do not like what they see in the mirror and it is very evident.

Seriously, you think that the Slave Owners r going to allow their Slaves to become sick and die and then he has to purchase another Slave and go through the same thing?
