19. Hip Hop, Sociology and Incarcerated People’s Health
Friday Mar 01, 2024
Friday Mar 01, 2024
Mass incarceration in the United States is a public health crisis that disproportionately affects Black and Brown communities. Incarceration can impact both the physical and mental health of individuals and complicates the ways in which these patients are able to seek care once released. Our mission was to utilize a sociological lens to investigate the ways in which Hip Hop may be able to positively impact a patient population that has a more intimate cultural link to the music style. In this episode we have University of Connecticut School of Nursing student Zara Mason (now BSN, RN) and University of Connecticut School of Nursing alum Donice (Nicey) Brooks, BSN, RN interviewing Dr. Donald C. Sawyer III Ph.D (Vice President for Equity and Inclusion at Quinnipiac University, Assistant clinical professor in the Frank H. Netter MD School of Medicine at Quinnipiac University, 2022 UST/AHEC Closing Ceremony Keynote Speaker).
