“Black women are 71% more likely to die of breast cancer than their White counterparts, so you have to question what is going on here,” she says. “Although there was knowledge in the medical community about inequities, it seemed like the default response was that this was all associated with poverty or lack of insurance, but what I found is that it’s more nuanced than that. There was bias that was contributing to these disparities. Even if a Black woman had adequate insurance and income, she was often not being presented with the standard of care.” […]
