It is June 2020. We have skipped a week of our podcast in respect to the current events. The times are unprecedented. The #BlackLivesMatter movement is happening with people on the streets fighting for racial freedom, liberation and justice. On the background, we are still fighting COVID-19. 
--------------------------------------
Today’s episode was recorded prior to the protests, but the topics of our conversation couldn’t be timelier. I had the opportunity to spend some virtual time with Dr. Anitha Srinivasa., an outstanding physician and human being. Through her lenses, I became aware of how discriminatory human medicine can be to women, people of color, and immigrants. How those moments affected her personal and professional life. We talked about being judged and downgraded for choosing to be a working mother and the fears and challenges first responders and essential workers face daily during COVID pandemic times. Dr. Srinivasa alludes to the unfortunate political battle this came to be, when lives are at risk. The change really starts at home.
