We talk to Pat Matthews Juarez and Paul Juarez from Meharry Medical College along with their community partner Neely Williams from the Tennessee Community Engaged Alliance Against COVID-19 (TN CEAL). In our conversation, we discuss how to establish and maintain long-term community partnerships and transdisciplinary alliances that are built upon trust.

This episode is part of an ongoing series where we chat with members of the Anti-Racism Consortium. These conversations are between organizations and their community partners to highlight how to deeply work with community in a way that shares power and that moves us all towards liberation.
