Oncology Center of Excellence Conversations on Cancer

Conversations on Cancer: Advancing Equity in Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Communities: Racism and Injustice is a 1 ½ hour conversation that will explore the surge of racism and hate crimes against AAPIs that is often linked to rhetoric blaming AAPIs for the spread of COVID-19. This is an important problem affecting many AAPI communities across the U.S. The panel discussion is informal and will address the following topics: Impact on COVID-19 on racism and healthcare in the AAPI population; disparities in cancer care in AAPIs; patient perspective on disparities in cancer care in the AAPI community; barriers to seeking medical care for AAPIs.
