In Conversation with Franklin Jones, Jr.

This Public Health Conversation Starter features Franklin Jones, Jr., lecturer in Deaf Studies at BU Wheelock, in conversation with Yvette Cozier, BUSPH Associate Dean for Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice.

Our Conversation Starters engage leading thinkers in short discussions around issues of consequence in public health. This Starter is part of SPH Reads, our school-wide reading program hosted by the Office of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice. In conjunction with this year’s book selection, Disability Visibility: First-Person Stories from the Twenty-First Century, Dean Cozier is having discussions with leaders who are working to advance the health of disabled populations.
