Dr. Rojas-Guyler

Dr. Rojas-Guyler gave an interesting presentation on Latino health in the area - focusing largely on the socio-economic factors that impact health.  It was really interesting when she made the point that she could replace the word Latino with African-American or Low-SES and the data wouldn't significantly change.  I was intrigued by the videoclips from PBS - I will definitely be checking that out.  I especially liked the final quote, "no one was white before they came to America" (I can't remember the author).  It definitely gives you something to think about.
