Screening of EveryBody's work, a Documentary about how racism impacts health

Additional Information

“Everybody’s Work” examines the hidden disease plaguing healthcare in the United States: structural racism. Through the lens of fearless nurses, this documentary not only exposes the biases that result in worse healthcare outcomes for people of color, but it captures the painful impact they have — both on patients and nurses.

Like blood in our veins, racism pervades healthcare.  It pushes some people’s pain, voices, and bodies aside. It distorts care and kills people faster, but it continues to be an invisible risk factor.  Too many continue to deny or look past this reality — that this system meant to heal is causing harm. But some fearless nurses are saying it’s time to get to work.  Address human suffering. Advocate for the voiceless. This is where nursing began. But to heal, it will take everyone standing up and speaking out. Health justice, after all, is everybody’s work.


JOIN US for a viewing of this film and a debrief featuring Katie Boston-Leary PhD, MBA, MHA, Rn, NEA-BC, director of Nursing Programs, American Nurses Association.  
This film will uncover what has always been there and inspire you to reflect personally, question thoughtfully, and care intentionally.
