If you have never watched a documentary on race in American medicine, you should definitely watch _The Color of Care_. If you think you've watched enough documentaries about race in American medicine, you should still watch this one. It is a time capsule of the impact of the early COVID-19 pandemic on minoritized populations in the United States. As a physician, I do not want to believe it is true that sick individuals could be turned away from care, but as story after family story is told in this moving film, I had to come to the realization (yet again) that American medicine does not operate the way I would want it to. As a trained medical historian, I can vouch for the accuracy of the interpretation of how it is that we got to where we are today. We can--must--do better both individually and as a society.
