Insight into the Public Health Economy: Perspectives from Seniors and Disability Populations (Part 1)
By Christopher Williams
Founding Director, Public Health Liberation
I recently took an opportunity to rewatch our inaugural national webinar from February 25, 2022, entitled, “As Designed": Encountering System Barriers in Health - A National Webinar and Conversation”. Dr. Jehan El-Bayoumi co-hosted with guests Linda Brown and Doug Koch, EdD. Linda is a senior and public housing community leader in Washington, DC who takes care of his adult daughter with cognitive and physical disabilities. Doug is Associate Director of Teaching and Learning for the Medical Education Center of Excellence at PCOM's Philadelphia location. He takes care of his aging parents in a suburb outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The first essay in this series discusses my reflections on Doug Koch’s contributions to our first webinar. I discuss my three major takeaways: Supporting Humanistic Public Health, Aging is Collective Responsibility, and Structural Barriers.

“Maybe, we the project”
University professor and poetess PS Perkins reminds us about the humanity and lived experiences of families who live in public housing communities. She read her poem, “When a House is Not a Home” at the PHL National Webinar and Conversation on Liberation Philosophy, Systems Thinking, and Social Determinants of Health.

Prior to starting Public Health Liberation,, Christopher Williams began an unfinished documentary to capture community voices in this gentrifying neighborhood of Washington, DC.
