ABOUT THIS CONVERSATION: I had a fascinating and deeply meaningful conversation with Robin Kelly about what medicine is really supposed to be: human, personal, and soulful. These days, healthcare feels more like a data-driven machine than a healing practice. We've lost the art of listening, of truly seeing patients as individuals rather than just collections of symptoms and numbers.Robin and I explored individualised care, not the kind that gets thrown around as a marketing term, but the real kind, where a doctor actually takes the time to understand the person in front of them. We talked about how technology, protocols, and endless data gathering make medicine more robotic and impersonal, stripping it of its true purpose.From there, we went deep into acupuncture, Chinese medicine, and the role of consciousness in healing. Robin shared his insights on chakras, the interstitium (a newly recognised part of human anatomy), and the incredible mathematical patterns in nature, like Fibonacci sequences and fractals, that seem to reflect the very essence of life itself.But more than anything, this conversation was about slowing down, reconnecting, and remembering that medicine isn't just about fixing bodies—it's about caring for souls.Much love Doc xLinksPersonal website Robin KellyIMPORTANT INFORMATIONAFFILIATE CODESWaterpureI distill all my water for drinking, washing fruit and vegetables, and cooking.

Women's health remains a critical issue globally, with alarming disparities in access and outcomes. A new survey from Hologic and Gallup reveals that while nearly 90% of women recognize the importance of health screenings, less than half undergo them consistently due to barriers like cost, time, and anxiety. The stakes are particularly high in underserved communities, where delayed diagnoses can lead to advanced cases of conditions like cervical and breast cancer.What can be done to ensure equitable access to healthcare for all women, especially in marginalized and rural areas? Can artificial intelligence revolutionize screening and diagnostics to save lives?On I Don't Care, host Dr Kevin Stevenson has a chat with Mia Keeys, Director of Global Health and Innovation at Hologic. Together, they delve into the intersection of equity, technology, and advocacy in women's health.Key Takeaways:Barriers to Women's Health Access: Structural challenges like transportation, affordability, and cultural trust hinder consistent screenings, despite widespread recognition of their importance.AI's Role in Healthcare: AI technologies, such as Hologic's digital cytology for cervical health, enhance efficiency in diagnostics and provider workflows, addressing burnout and improving care.Advocacy for Policy Change: Maintaining healthcare access through programs like the Affordable Care Act and expanding support for underserved areas are pivotal in improving outcomes.Dr. Mia Keeys is a global health expert and director at Hologic, focusing on women's health innovation and equity. A former chief of staff for Congresswoman Robin Kelly, she has spearheaded health equity initiatives in Congress, at the American Medical Association, and abroad. Her academic pursuits include health policy and artificial intelligence, with field experience in countries like Indonesia and South Africa.

We have yet to reach a consensus on the intellectual foundation of the health equity movement as it tries to replace the legacy system. Join us to discuss ways to improve or even replace the system for the best healthcare outcomes. We will also put in context the operating consensus that informs how health is apportioned. Speakers Gary A. Puckrein, PhD President and Chief Executive Officer National Minority Quality Forum Gary A. Puckrein, PhD, is President and Chief Executive Officer of the National Minority Quality Forum (NMQF) — formerly the National Minority Health Month Foundation—a not-for-profit organization that he founded in 1998. NMQF addresses the critical need for strengthening preventable illness in minority populations through prevention, early detection, and control of disease complications. In April 2001, the National Minority Health Month Foundation launched National Minority Health Month in response to Healthy People 2010, the national health promotion and disease-prevention initiative. NMQF has received support from a wide variety of organizations, including federal agencies, pharmaceutical companies, payers, and trade associations. With support from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, NMQF undertook the Zip Code Analysis Project, developing a comprehensive database that links vital statistics and otherelements—including demographic, environmental, claims, prescription, laboratory, hospital, andclinic data—in a centralized data warehouse, organized around zip codes. The Zip Code Analysis Project has enabled NMQF to develop the Health Assessment Tool, which measures and forecasts health status in small geographic areas, evaluates the impact of specific interventions, monitors changes in health outcomes, and undertakes risk assessments (health-care utilization and its financial implications). NMQF uses the Health Assessment Tool to stratify communities by geographic and health-status referents and to provide the health-disparities movement with a common set of indicators to measure and report on progress toward the elimination of disparities in health care and health status. Dr. Puckrein has received many awards and honors, including being named a visiting scholar and fellow at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History and a visiting fellow at Princeton University. He was publisher of American Visions, the country's leading African American art and cultural magazine, which he launched during his tenure at the Smithsonian Institution and Rutgers University.

People will say anything, it's what we do that matters most if we are to be believed. As James Baldwin said, "I cannot believe what you say because I see what you do."

U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly (D-Matteson), discusses how her leadership of the Democratic Party of Illinois will carve a new path from predecessor Mike Madigan, her relationship with Gov. J.B. Pritzker, the outlook for President Biden's legislative agenda in the 2022 elections, and her hopes for new congressional maps.

U.S. Representative Robin Kelly has served the 2nd congressional district of Illinois since 2013.  In this episode of the Crisis Cast, explains the need for a bi-partisan lens. Congresswoman Kelly says, "We all want the same thing.  A job, and a roof over our heads." During this visit to our chat room, you'll also hear Ms. Kelly's chilling story of what it was like to be inside the U.S. Capitol, during the riot of January 6, 2021.

On this episode, we discuss the resignation of Carol Pope. The former judge resigned as Legislative Inspector General and had some parting shots for lawmakers. Pope said the recent legislative session showed "true ethics reform" was not a priority. Gov. J.B. Pritzker signed legislation to end deceptive interrogation by police. It's a tactic some argue has led to wrongful convictions. And the Federal Election Commission has limited Congresswoman Robin Kelly, the Democratic Party Of Illinois Chair, from certain fundraising activities. What does that mean for the party?

#TeamRobin is the crowd that supports Illinois member of the US House of Representatives, Robin Kelly. Elected on a platform headlined by her support for powerful new gun control laws, Kelly has been steadfast in this advocacy as well as become a leader on other issues that help families lead healthy lives and live in safe communities. Among her important recent work has been advocacy for decreasing maternal deaths; in the US particularly and tragically high among African American women. Along with sister, and neighboring, Member Lauren Underwood, Kelly is a powerful and inspirational role model for women throughout Illinois, having also served in legislative and executive office in the state and holding a Ph.D.in political science.

Has it ever dawn on you that the healthcare provider that you've sat across from was once a student? An individual who was shaped into the professional they are today. Now granted, every individual is unique and may evolve differently. Nonetheless, it is when they are being educated that philosophies are formed. Wouldn't it make sense to begin our reform there?

Armed extremists in so-called “militia” groups (from the organized Three Percenters to the more decentralized Boogaloo Bois movement) have gained increasing media attention in 2021, as they used firearms as tools of intimidation and violence in events across the US. And who better to comment on those who participate in these militias than those who served in the US military? As such, Brady is joined by a panel of veterans to comment on: what it’s like to see weapons of war in US streets and government buildings; the militarization of civilians; how they feel about the rise of veterans in these so-called “militias”; and what those concerned about the rise of “militia” groups can do to push back. To cover all this and more, hosts Kelly and JJ are joined by veterans Timothy "TJ" Ryan, Dr. Kyleanne Hunter, and Congressman Jason Crow. Mentioned in this podcast:Letter from Jason Crow and Robin Kelly on weapons of war (Jason Crow)We Are Not Done Yet (HBO)Addressing the threats of armed militias and white vigilantism in America (Brady)The 2nd amendment and public safety after Heller (Brady)Armed intimidation isn’t peaceful protest (Brady) What are so-called “second amendment” sanctuaries?  (Brady)Help support the podcast and Brady's mission by clicking here!For more information on Brady, follow us on social media @Bradybuzz or visit our website at bradyunited.org.Full transcripts and bibliographies of this episode are available at bradyunited.org/podcast.National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255. Music provided by: David “Drumcrazie” CurbySpecial thanks to Hogan Lovells for their long-standing legal support ℗&©2019 Red, Blue, and BradySupport the show (https://www.bradyunited.org/donate)

This week I touch base with my old mate Dr robin Kelly, one. of the very few practicing doctors who can see this current global psychosis for what it is. I had the pleasure of working with Robin last year in New Zealand just as the madness was kicking off. In this episode we talk about how he copes and how we can find some meaning for ourselves through this utter insanity though creativity, the arts and finding your passion. Check out Robins channels here https://www.youtube.com/user/robinjlk​And here is his excellent TED Talkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CohKX...

Researchers, insurers, and health care experts continue to try to tackle improving maternal health care — and by extension, the health of children. In this episode, we hear from Dr. Johanna Vidal-Phelan, senior medical director, pediatrics at UPMC Health Plan, where she manages children's services in the Children's Health Insurance Program, among other initiatives. We also hear from Katie Domalakes, a licensed social worker and director of clinical programs at UPMC Health Plan who focuses on population health efforts for maternal, child, and special needs populations. Host Ellen Beckjord also speaks with Congresswoman Robin Kelly, an Illinois Democrat, who is advocating for measures to extend Medicaid coverage to women for up to one year after they give birth.

Today on Sojourner Truth: We remember a key figure, woman and human rights campaigner in the Caribbean region, Andaiye. She was a collaborator and comrade of Walter Rodney. Rodney is known in the United States and around the world for his groundbreaking book, "How Europe Underdeveloped Africa." Andaiye died on May 31, 2019. Today, we dig into the history of struggles in the region, their interrelationship to the struggles in which she was involved in, and struggles in the United States, the Americas and Europe. She worked mainly in the movement outside of government, but she was part of the CARICOM delegation to the final UN conference on women that was held in Beijing, China in 1995. Andaiye's impact on the region and beyond is why her death is being so deeply felt " from Guyana, Jamaica, Haiti, England and elsewhere. Robin Kelly, head of Africana Studies at UCLA, is the author of the foreword to Andaiye's upcoming anthology, titled "The Point Is To Change The World." We honor and remember our sister warrior who was against sexism, racism, imperialism and for racial unity, human rights and freedom. Our guests include a number of people who worked with her in Guyana but also in other parts of the world. They are Joy Marcus, Jocelyn Dow, Eusi Kwayana, Alissa Trotz, Selma James.
