Join us for a screening of The Power to Heal hosted by the Richard B. Russell Library in conjunction with the exhibition For All the People created by the National Library of Medicine.About the Film
POWER TO HEAL is an hour-long public television documentary that tells a poignant chapter in the historic struggle to secure equal and adequate access to healthcare for all Americans. Central to the story is the tale of how a new national program, Medicare, was used to mount a dramatic, coordinated effort that desegregated thousands of hospitals across the country in a matter of months.
