PHMC - Everything is Tuberculosis

Book report! What Daniella & MJ liked and didn't like about John Green's newest book, "Everything is Tuberculosis". Written in the age of COVID, does he address the thing TB is known for: airborne disease transmission? Can he separate himself from tired old tropes of white saviourism in Africa? Do we think the book does enough to challenge the systems producing inequity in the first place? Hit play and our opinions will be revealed!Another crossover episode edited by MJ of Everything is Public Health.RESOURCESMe-to-We/The Kielburgers' WE Charity ScandalWE Charity misled donors about building schools in Kenya, records show [CBC]WE is actually we [Briarpatch]WE charity scandal - A simple guide to the new crisis for Trudeau [BBC]Canadian Medical Association's Apology for harms to Indigenous PeoplesTuberculosis among Inuit How Europe Underdeveloped Africa - Walter Rodney(Note/Correction: Daniella quotes a sentence from the book that says "Inuit people" but this is redundant as Inuit means "the people" in Inuktitut therefore should have only said "Inuit".)   This is an independent, listener-supported show.
