Juneteenth Film Festival: Celebrating Stories of Black Resilience, Joy and Strength
In the spirit of Juneteenth and the long-standing push for freedom and equality in the country, SurvivorNet is celebrating stories of courage, resilience, and Black people overcoming the odds. We find in our work with the cancer community, and throughout health care, that courage and resilience is so much a part of the story of achieving better health equity. And of course, so much a part of the story and the struggle of Black Americans.
