The film details the experience of disabled African American artists in a New York City nursing home trying to survive during the COVID-19 pandemic and highlighting the disproportionate impacts the pandemic had on communities of color and those with health preconditions. A panel discussion will follow featuring experts from Penn State about lessons from COVID-19 about the social determinants of health and how we can better support community health for all. Free and open to all campuses to attend. Pre-registration is required at this link.
