One of the greatest acts of courage is to admit out mistakes and learn from them. Doing so publicly takes even more courage - Unvaccinated dad records days of regret in hospital -- and makes heartbreaking request for daughter's wedding in case he dies cnn.com/2021/08/06/health/co…

Did you catch @tylerperry's special? We approached him to help us raise awareness about the safety of the #COVID vaccine, particularly given that African Americans are disproportionately affected by the virus. He had questions - likely you do too. ow.ly/Ci4m50DmbYk

There are many reasons for vaccine distrust in communities of colors, Dr. Kim Manning tells @gpbnews. On social media, @gradydoctor shares people's reasons: “What's your ‘why’?” You know, Black ‘whys” matter. Ask why." fal.cn/3d0L0 #vaccinehesitancy

Dr. #MartinLutherKingJr addressed students and faculty @EmoryUniversity in 1962, the same year that Emory filed suit challenging DeKalb County's segregation policies. Emory won the case on appeal in the Georgia Supreme Court & admitted the 1st African American student in 1963.
