Health Care Disparities

African American men in Hampton Roads have the highest rate of prostate cancer in the nation! Why aren't black men in our region getting the information, screenings and treatment they need? This week on Another View we'll discuss the problem and look at solutions. I'm Lisa Godley and I'll be filling in for Barbara Hamm Lee this week. Join me, Dr. Nathaniel Stinson and Dr. Richard Wright along with cancer survivors: Terrance Afer-Anderson and Charlie Hill; as we discuss this life threatening disease and the upcoming symposium designed to provide information and screenings to those who need it most. Also, my interview with Grammy award-winning artist... Pharrell Williams. We'll tell you what he's doing to give back to kids in Hampton Roads! So make an appointment to tune in to Another View, Friday, August 17 at noon on 89.5 WHRV-FM or stream us at whrv.org.
