Beyond the Finger Prick: Reclaiming Black Health & Diabetes Tech

from African American Diabetes Podcast Show

Standard diabetes care wasn't built with Black communities in mind—and it’s time to rewrite the rules. Join host Leon Rock as he dives into the systemic barriers, outdated advice, and implicit biases that keep life-changing technology out of the hands of Black Americans living with diabetes. From continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) and automated insulin delivery to actionable strategies for self-advocacy in the exam room, this episode bridges the gap between modern medical innovation and health equity. Whether you're living with diabetes or providing care, tune in to discover how we shift the narrative from basic survival to thriving with cutting-edge tech.#DiabetesTechForALL, #InclusiveDiabetesCare, #BeyondTheFingerPrick, #EndHealthDisparities, #T1DLookLikeMe, #T2DHealthEquity, #CGMAccessNow, #MedEdDiversity, #PatientAdvocacyInAction
