DESCRIPTION:SPEAKER EVENT: Rooted in Enslavement: How American Medicine Was Built on 
 the Oppression, Experimentation and Commodification of the Black 
 Body\n\nDate And Time: Thursday, February 13, 2020 @ 4:30 PM – 6:30 PM 
 \n\nLocation: UCSF Mission Hall Room 1407, 550 16th Street, San Francisco, 
 CA 94158\n\nCost: FREE\n\nSPEAKER: Dante King\nExecutive Leader of 
 Diversity, Culture, Equity and Employee Experience for the San Francisco 
 Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) (https://www.danteking.com/)\n\nThe 
 Black body has been exploited as a tool by others since the first enslaved 
 Africans were brought to the shores of Virginia in 1619. Many industries 
 such as cotton, sugar cane and tobacco were built on the backs of Black 
 people to create the wealth inequality that we see today. \n\nWhat is 
 seldom discussed is the many ways in which the fields of healthcare and 
 medicine were also developed and continue to flourish under the same 
 systems of enslavement and Jim Crow. \n\nDante King, a Bay Area expert in 
 the advancement of equity, inclusion, and equality, will discuss the 
 history and experiences of the enslaved and their descendants, and how the 
 Medical Industrial Complex owes its development, foundation, and success to 
 the experimentation and commodification of Black bodies.\n
