The @MartinCenter CEO says #sicklecelldisease advocacy is a social justice and a clinical fight. “We found that this disease was killing people ... But society said, ‘Who cares? They're Black people, we don't care.’" bit.ly/3xbc2fE via @Farah_Yousrym

The @RedCross is experiencing a drastic blood donation shortage. Blood donors who are Black play a critical role in helping people with sickle cell disease. It is essential that the blood they receive be the most compatible match possible.

I'm looking forward to sharing what I've been learning about #Sicklecelltrait in America tomorrow afternoon during SCDAA's 49th Annual Convention. #SCDUnstoppable.
Dr. Shurney's Sickle Cell 101 is awesome. I highly recommend it.
