Dr Abdul El Sayed: Listening to Pain, Translating Culture, & Amplifying Voices
"I realized that there was a lot more work to be done and if we weren’t willing to take the values that we think about in public health everyday to our politics then we would always be doomed to try and beat around the bush or pick up the scraps"
Dr. Abdul El Sayed is a physician, epidemiologist, educator, author, speaker, podcast host, 2018 Michigan gubernatorial candidate, and former health commissioner of the city of Detroit. He recounts how growing up in Michigan and Alexandria, Egypt opened his eyes to health disparities, how that inspired him to pursue public health, and how physicians should leverage their abilities to listen to pain in order to advocate for a more just, equitable, and sustainable world.
Check out Dr. Abdul El Sayed's books: Healing Politics: A Doctor’s Journey into the Heart of Our Political Epidemic and Medicare for All: A Citizen’s Guide, his newsletter The Incision, and his podcast America Dissected.
