The C.O.W.S. (Context of White Supremacy) #TheCOWS14Years welcomes Dr. Jessica S. Wallace live for Super Bowl Sunday! An assistant professor at the University of Alabama at Tuscaloosa #RollTide, Dr. Wallace is a Harvard trained epidemiologist with a doctorate in kinesiology from Michigan State University. We learned about her work a few weeks ago when Dr. Julie M. Stamm visited our program to discuss tackle football and brain damage. Specifically, Dr. Stamm cited Dr. Wallace's fascinating research that investigates "racial disparities" in knowledge about concussions. Specifically, her work suggests that White coaches, parents and scholar-athletes are more informed about concussions than their black counterparts at all levels. Frighteningly, black parents in Dr. Wallace's study demonstrated a high level of overconfidence about their understanding of brain injuries [Gus has seen this many times over the years]. We'll discuss this week's report from Boston University which once again showed that it's nigh impossible to play tackle football without damaging your brain computer. Importantly, Dr. Wallace found that black children are substantially more likely to be concussed as a result of off-the-field violence. #BrainComputer #DamarHamlin #TheCOWS14Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE 564943#
