(00:01) Impacting Healthcare Disparities Through Research(08:23) Transforming Healthcare Through Research(17:12) Expanding Healthcare Access and Training(26:10) Inspiring Future Healthcare ProvidersGrowing up in a small Michigan town, Dr. Karriem Watson was destined for a career in football until life had other plans. Witnessing the harrowing realities of health disparities firsthand after losing his mother to breast cancer and watching his father battle diabetes and cancer, Karriem found a new calling. Join us as he shares this transformative journey from aspiring athlete to a passionate researcher focused on cancer disparities, emphasizing the critical role of clinical trials and understanding social determinants of health. Karriem's story is a powerful reminder of how personal experiences can drive us to make impactful changes in the world around us.We then turn our attention to the intersection of medicine, research, and technology, featuring the groundbreaking All of Us Research Program at the NIH. This initiative offers a treasure trove of data, essential for advancing personalized medicine. Through compelling narratives, we explore how genetic screening and treatment are revolutionizing care for conditions like chronic kidney disease and spinal muscular atrophy. The conversation extends to the transformative potential of artificial intelligence in healthcare, illustrating its role in evolving data analysis, medical research, and patient care.Finally, the episode examines the multifaceted challenges of managing chronic conditions in disadvantaged communities, where social determinants of health often exacerbate issues. We explore visionary healthcare models that integrate medical, legal, and nutritional support, fostering a holistic approach to patient care. The importance of diversity and empathy in medical education is emphasized, advocating for immersive experiences and global perspectives to better understand and serve diverse populations. By reflecting on the impactful work of Federally Qualified Health Centers, we inspire future healthcare providers to blend creativity, compassion, and an entrepreneurial spirit into their practice, forging a more equitable healthcare landscape for all.

Filmmaker, Karriem Shabazz, lived and worked, for 15 years, in Syria and traveled throughout the region. To do his part for peace, Karriem wanted to relate the history of the Israel-Palestine conflict. Using remarkable archival video footage that he obtained from research in the region, Karriem created a compelling documentary about the little known history of what happened in the Holy Land during the past 100 years. The people of Palestine do not deserve to be forgotten or neglected. Deliberately misinformed and deceived, Americans are responsible for, and are the only people who can stop the injustice, apartheid and genocide that is being committed in this Holy Land, against the innocent people of the ancient Biblical land of Samson and Delilah, and David and Goliath. "The Struggle to Save Al-Aqsa and the Holy Lands" begins with the father of Zionism, Theodore Hertzel and ends with the last Intifada when Prime Minister Ariel Sharon provoked this bloodbath of innocent children in 2001. This film documents the impact of the spy T.E. Lawrence, Lord James Arthur Balfour, the British Evangelical Zionists, the League of Nations and the United Nations. Also, this film chronicles the massacres perpetrated by the “Israeli” occupation force, to steal more land and eliminate more of the people of Palestine. These massacres have defined the longest occupation in history from 1948 in Kafr Qasim through the 1950s, 60s and 70s to the massacre of women and children at the UN outpost in Qana, Lebanon 48 years later and is still ongoing.

Karriem Riggins is a rare artist whose creative voice resonates in improvised music and popular music alike. Karriem spoke to Joe in front of a live audience at Ace Hotel Palm Springs about: being born into a musical family in Detroit; his definition of greatness and mastery; working with established legends like Ray Brown and modern legends like J Dilla; and he answers listener questions. Also, Trap Set friend--Jose Medeles--calls to talk about his new book, The Stoic Drummer.

Dr. Karriem Watson was the preacher for the first worship service of LSTC’s spring semester on Feb. 5. He preached on Mark 1:29-39 and Jeremiah 29:1-14. Dr. Watson is Director of Community Engagement in Clinical Research at the University of Illinois at Chicago where he is a faculty member at the UIC School of Public Health in the Division of Community Health Services. He is an adjunct faculty member at DePaul and Northwestern Universities in Chicago. His work in public health has resulted in the creation of community-based cancer screening, prevention and navigation programs for breast, lung, colorectal, cervical and prostate cancer. In addition to engaging in cancer disparities research, he is part of the administrative leadership of the new Center for Health Equity Research (CHER Chicago), to address structural violence.
