MLK Heath Science Lecture

The 33rd annual University of Michigan MLK Health Sciences Lecture and program was hosted this year by the University of Michigan School of Dentistry. Speakers from various healthcare fields offered their experiences and insight tied to this year’s theme of “(R)evolution - from Segregation to Elevation: The Quest for Health Equity.”
In honoring the legacy of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., keynote speaker Dr. George W. Taylor, Associate Dean for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at University of California-San Francisco (UC-SF) School of Dentistry, recounted his journey as a Black man into dentistry and academia from his native Virginia in the segregated South.
The program also included musical performances from a chorale led by members of the dental school’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Multicultural Affairs Committee, and a solo vocal performance by Dr. Colonya Calhoun, Adjunct Clinical Associate Professor of Dentistry in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery/Hospital Dentistry.
