This week was the season one finale of the Golden Civilization Conversation Facebook Live series. George was joined by Dr. Charlie Easmon of Your Excellent Health Service.
Charlie begins by speaking about his journey to medicine and how he discovered the long pedigree of medical doctors in his family; he is one of 7 doctors in his family history, the first of which qualified as a doctor in Victorian England in 1879, one of less than 100 black doctors qualified prior to 1900. Watch their conversation to learn the circumstances of how George and Charlie met and the discussion that follows, touching on great leaders, race, Charlie’s Ted X Talk, mental health, and public health.
