Breaking Glass Ceilings: The Black Past, Present, and Future of Academic Public Health

For the first time since the school’s inception, a Black woman and man have successfully completed the tenure track trajectory, and are now tenured at the University of Louisville School of Public Health & Information Sciences.

What does this mean for academic research, community-based engagement, and student mentorship? As part of our Cardinal Anti-Racist Agenda, we must publicly explore, celebrate, and learn from the Black brilliance that fertilizes our soil. The Office of Culture & Liberation celebrated National Public Health Week by highlighting OUR Black History in April 2022!

Trinidad Jackson, Asst. Dean for Culture & Liberation; Faculty Member, Dept. Health Promotion & Behavioral Sciences, moderated the panel discussion between Dr. J'Aime Jennings, CHOT Co-Director; Associate Professor, Department of Health Management and Systems Sciences, and Dr. Jelani Kerr. Associate Professor, Department of Health Promotion and Behavioral Sciences.
