GRAND RAPIDS, MI – Open conversations on race are a launchpad for addressing public health disparities in Kent County, community groups said in a virtual forum Saturday.
The Urban Core Collective, NAACP Grand Rapids and Linc Up invited residents to discuss racism as a health threat in an April 10 gathering via Zoom.
“Over the past two years, numerous cities, counties and even some states have declared racism as a public health crisis. Kent County has yet to do so,” said Onesimus Pewee, a member of the NAACP fellowship program.
