[NFBN-Announce] Health Equity Dialogues With Barbara Loos

[Jamie K. Richey]

Hello, everyone. This is Barbara Loos. I want to invite you to join me for
an opportunity to have influence. I have agreed to begin a dialogue during
this discussion as part of Blind Equality Awareness Month and hope you will
be there either to participate or to listen. 

 

On Thursday, October 19, from 1:00 to 2:30, there will be a presentation of
Health Equity Dialogues on Zoom. The topic is Seeing Health through the Eyes
of a Blind Woman. The way to attend is at the bottom of this message. 

 

As some of you know, I have been exchanging ideas with those in the Health
Equity Coalition both at monthly meetings and in other spaces since during
the pandemic. Here is what it says about itself and the opportunity before
us this month. It also mentions the November topic. 

 

Health Equity Dialogues are brought to you by the Lincoln Health Equity
Coalition. We exist to promote an infrastructure where every person
experiences a healthy, high quality life without discrimination. We champion
a whole-health model that is inclusive, accessible, affordable, and
acceptable across the lifespan. We believe there are enough resources for
all to be healthy and live a high quality of life. We believe it takes us
all to make an impact and that all voices matter. We believe in creating
collective action where we can make possible the notion of 'nothing for us,
without us'.

The purpose of Health Equity Dialogues is to create a safe, generative space
for sharing, listening and connecting around the commonality of health
inequity experiences.

The purpose of the dialogues is to create authentic relationships and spaces
of healing within a community that cares, empathizes and relates to each
other. The structure of the Health Equity Dialogues revolves around one main
story-teller who will share a health equity experience prior to open
dialogue for people to connect, empathize, share relatable experiences,
along with movement towards healing, solutions, and change.

Stories give us a sense of belonging, of being wanted and needed and heard.
Stories connect us. Stories of lived experiences can also provide
counter-narratives to the majority culture - to the systems and structures
that are sometimes just considered 'givens' or 'normal' or even
'unchangeable'.

Anyone willing to enter the virtual space with curiosity, openness, and
empathy ready to listen and contribute will be welcomed.
