EP 113: "A Chance to Make a Difference" Part 1 ft Jade-Addon Hall
Contributors: Comedian Ivan Martin and Lawyer/ Legal Contribitor Natasha Axelrod
Like many of you, this past year has been eye-opening for me. The overwhelming inequities and systemic racism that continues to plague our nation left me wondering, “What I can do to help?” One area that became abundantly clear was the healthcare gap. In 2019, for example, we lost 73,000 Black Americans to cancer; the highest rate of any racial or ethnic group. Because of the exorbitant costs of cancer treatment, even with Medicaid, the gaps in healthcare are significant.
My friend Jade-Addon Hall was nominated for the 2021 Man & Woman of the Year Campaign, to raise funds for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS). I’m proud to announce that I have joined Team Cure Excellence in an effort to raise funds and awareness for ending blood cancers and providing equitable care for those who need it most.
We discuss why he asked me to join in the effort for raising money to LLS. We talk about how I was hesitant at first and why this is so important to me. This is part 1 of 2 episodes about LLS. Part 2 comes out on Tuesday April 4.6.21 with a local Baltimore Cancer Survivor that was helped by LLS.
