Time: Noon EST
Speaker: Ian S. Peebles, PhD
Title: 鈥淭ools to Help Resolve Racial Health Disparities鈥�
Talk Description: The dominant views in bioethics today understand race to be a sociopolitical construct in all healthcare contexts and racism to be fundamentally structural and consequence-based. Contrary to these views, I will argue that a pluralist race theory and a virtue-based account of racism best enable us to resolve racial (and ethnic) health disparities. The upshot of these alternative frameworks is a more comprehensive, practical, and relevantly accurate approach to detecting some of the relevant mechanisms implicated in racial health disparities.
