The Brecht Forum presents
Race, Racism, and Health Care
a panel with Matt Anderson, M.D., Chinita Fulchon, Ph.D.,
Daniel Neuspiel, M.D., and Susan Moscou, F.N.P.
Friday, December 20 at 7:30 pm
Health care providers grapple with concepts of race and
ethnicity and their use in clinical practice, their
impact on clinical strategies, patient-provider
interactions, public policy concerns, obfuscation of
class realities, and general misuse of race and
ethnicity in the health care environment. The panel
will address the origins of racial classifications,
the construction and perceptions of race/ethnicity by
providers, the use of race and drug screening in child
welfare policy, and the deconstruction of race.
Matt Anderson is Medical Director at Montefiore Care
for the Homeless. Chinita Fulchon is Director of
Psychosocial Training, Department of Family Medicine
at Montefiore Medical Center. Susan Moscou is Family
Nurse Practitioner at Montefiore Care for the Homeless.
Daniel Neuspiel is Medical Director at Montefiore's
