Dr. Hannah Janeway is currently an International and Domestic Health Equity and Leadership (IDHEAL) Fellow at UCLA. Her current work is focused on vulnerable populations at the US-Mexico border, utilizing healthcare as a mechanism for social justice, and educating healthcare providers on structural vulnerability and LGBTQIA+ issues. She uses her FIX19 talk to recount the tragic shooting of a patient by a police officer within her emergency department and explores how this made her realize her own power. “When we are faced with an injustice, big or small, we have two choices: silence or speech. How do we motivate ourselves and other physicians to chose speech?” She would like you to learn your power and chose speech! Watch the video version of her talk here.
