‘Writing Blackgirls’ and Women’s Health Science’

As we near the end of Black History Month and the George Washington University’s Black Heritage Celebration, GW Today sat down with Jameta Barlow, director of undergraduate studies for the Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program in the Columbian College of Arts and Sciences, to discuss “Writing Blackgirls’ and Women’s Health Science,” a collection of works by scholars that examines the health and well being of Black girls and women. Published in late December 2023, Barlow edited the book that includes a contribution from Maranda Ward, an assistant professor of clinical and leadership in the School of Medicine and Health Sciences
