Rejecting structural racism is everybody’s work. That’s the perspective of a new documentary exploring racism in the health care industry and, especially, through the lens of its largest workforce — nurses.
“Everybody’s Work: Healing what hurts us all,” which premiered recently in Washington, D.C., reveals racism’s harmful effects on patients and nurses alike. The film was funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, one of the nation’s largest health care foundations.
The filmmakers chose to focus on the Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing at UC Davis and UC Davis Health because of their national reputation for advancing diversity, equity and inclusion, or DEI, through nursing education and employment.
