Episode 1- What Solidarity Does
What does it mean for global health to be rooted in solidarity rather than profit?In this first episode of Revolutionary Vital Signs, Dr. Samira Addrey explores how global health systems shape who lives, who suffers, and who gets left behind. Drawing from her training in Cuba and experiences in the emergency room, she examines the realities of medical brain drain, unequal access to care, and the role of Cuban medical internationalism in addressing global health inequities.From a patient’s journey between St. Lucia and the United States to the broader political economy of healthcare, this episode asks a critical question: what happens when solidarity becomes the foundation of medicine?🎧 Listen. Reflect. Stay with the questions.
