Chandra L. Ford, PhD, MPH, MLIS proposes that research can be a powerful weapon for advancing the cause of equity, illustrates why for such research to be meaningful we must be more thoughtful about how we use theory and methods, and offers excerpts from her recently published book, Racism: Science & Tools for the Public Health Professional [see link in this folder].

The lecture was presented November 18, 2019 in the Joan Heckler Gillings Auditorium in Rosenau Hall on the UNC Chapel Hill campus.
