On the Season 2 finale,  I address the disproportionate rate of chronic illness in the Black Community and the affect it has on our community. I explore how chronic illness is viewed, the physical/ mental toll attached to chronic illness and the discrimination that sometimes comes with it! BLACK HEALTH MATTERS! 

This weeks "shout outs"  go to those battling a chronic illness and doing all that they can to manage on a day to day basis. Keep fighting and take care of yourself.
