Black Paramedics Find an Ally in a Young White Female Doctor – Freedom House, Part II

from Constant Wonder

Part 2 of our Freedom House story involves the racial politics of saving lives in the late '60s and early '70s, a norm-shattering young White female doctor, and the graceful but determined response of one skilled Black paramedic, who provided unheralded leadership to the people he worked under.
