In this episode we speak to the team leading the Disrupting the Cycle project, which aims to better understand how Black people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) navigate the health services system and how to best support these individuals in a way that is culturally affirming, anti-ableist, and also affirms their ability to actively participate in their own healthcare. As part of the discussion, we speak to a Disrupting the Cycle co-researcher and advocate with IDD as she shares firsthand experiences in navigating the healthcare system and what providers can do to allow all the opportunity to effectively advocate for themselves.

In this episode we speak with Gabe Miller, Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and Associate Director of the Deep South Initiative for Advancing Sexual and Gender Minority Health, about his research that spans political and policy determinants of health; population health, inequity, and intersectionality; and broad questions of community, wellbeing, and health.
We delve into the reality that racism, homophobia, and transphobia diminish the health of people of color as well as LGBTQ+ people or sexual gender minorities through mechanisms of inequity. We also hear his personal motivations to do this work along with exploring the representation of race in research methodology, the intersection of race, sexual orientation, and neighborhood social support, and how policy and advocacy affect health outcomes.

This podcast is produced from a recent Partners for Advancing Health Equity webinar, held
November 2023. Moderated by our podcast host, Caryn Bell, she and guests discuss how
recognition of structural racism, sexism, and other structural marginalization are the root
causes of health inequities. However, it is not enough. Efforts to make changes on the
structural level require shifts in power that center the views, experiences, and desires of the
communities that experience harm. Understanding and collaboration across multiple sectors
are needed to build community power to affect change.
This discussion showcased work that uplifts the idea that building power in communities is key to
changing structural drivers of health inequities and health equity.
Host and Moderator: Caryn Bell, Associate Director, Partners for Advancing Health Equity,
Assistant Professor, Tulane School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine
Panelists:
Jonathan Heller, Senior Health Equity Fellow, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Gigi Barsoum, Principal, Barsoum Policy Consulting
