The Skin You're In

"The Skin You’re In", a poignant documentary that addresses the stark reality that Black Americans live sicker and die younger than any other ethnic group in the nation.

Why is this happening? The Skin You’re In investigates this disturbing phenomenon from various angles. Through discussions with leading health experts and researchers we bring light to the realities of the issue, and we highlight health problems firsthand in the everyday lives of Black families telling their stories. We meet extraordinary individuals who are indeed valued health experts — people taking positive action to heal their lives, their families, and their communities.
