Writer, teacher, and practicing doctor Ricardo Nuila joins us on our virtual events stage to present his debut work, The People's Hospital: Hope and Peril in American Medicine. For many, U.S. health care is unaffordable and often unavailable. But not for patients at the Ben Taub Hospital, operated by the Harris Health System in Houston, TX. With compassionate insight, Ricardo Nuila follows the cases of five patients to show how this publicly funded hospital supports the community by making good health care accessible to all. Andrea Elliott, author of Pulitzer Prize winning book Invisible Child: Poverty, Survival & Hope in an American City, joins Nuila for a thought-provoking evening with a reading, discussion, and Q&A.
