A special edition of the Health Equity Newsletter published by the Equal Justice Society and Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein, LLP.
Juneteenth 2026: An Exhibition in Print will be a powerful cultural and educational magazine that explores the intersection of race, gender, and health through visual and literary arts, centering the voices and experiences of Black Women to promote healing, community awareness, and systemic change.
This special edition of the Health Equity Newsletter is a Juneteenth commemoration and catalyst for centering Black Women as the mothers of gynecology and dismantling and supplanting the racist and misogynistic narratives that elevated Dr. J. Marion Sims as the father of gynecology. Through this Exhibition in Print, EJS is shifting the narrative about Black Women’s contributions to modern medicine and raising awareness of the ongoing impact of implicit bias and anti-Blackness on Black Women’s health.
