Season 2, Episode 16: Exposing the Myth of Race in Healthcare with Dr. Marcia Anderson

How do you measure racism inside a healthcare system, and what happens when the data finally tells the truth? On Season 2, Episode 16 of The Emerging Scholar Podcast, we are joined by Dr. Marcia Anderson, who reveals why race-based data is not about biology, but about measuring how racism operates through healthcare systems - and how Manitoba’s groundbreaking work is exposing inequities hiding in plain sight. From scientific racism to emergency room wait times, this is a powerful conversation about evidence, accountability, and who gets to shape the stories data tells.
