Dr. Shawnita Sealy-Jefferson - founder, director, and principal investigator of the Social Epidemiology to Eliminate Disparities (SEED) Lab - will lead the discussion. She will discuss how her participatory approach to research is mobilizing community power, wisdom, and radical truth-telling of Black women, families, and communities.

Sealy-Jefferson is a social epidemiologist whose primary research seeks action to combat manifestations of structural racism that limit the human rights of Black communities.

Brazelton Touchpoints Center's Learning to Listen: Conversations for Change series is aimed at anyone who cares for and about babies and children as well as the families, professionals, and communities that protect and nurture them. Each conversation is an hour in length and features live Spanish translation. The conversations also include closed captioning and an interactive Q&A. Certificates of attendance are available.
