What is The Scholarly Exit? and why should I subscribe?
The Scholarly Exit breaks down key texts, historical moments, and real-world policies to uncover the roots of racial health disparities. Here, we make complex ideas accessible—no academic jargon, just real, necessary conversations about how history informs today’s healthcare system. Whether it's the maternal health crisis, environmental racism, or economic policies affecting Black and Brown communities, we examine how every issue is a health issue. I approach these discussions with the belief that everything is connected to health, and that understanding history is essential to making real change. Whether you're a scholar, activist, or someone simply seeking to understand why these inequities exist, this space provides the knowledge and context to help you engage in meaningful conversations and action. If you’re looking for a place to start, you’re in the right place.
