This exhibit, curated by University of Denver students, juxtaposed archival material from the Jewish Consumptives’ Relief Society (JCRS) with contemporary issues of healthcare access and equity. Each section connected historical artifacts to contemporary organizations, individuals, and questions. Examples from the past and the present were shown side by side to highlight the value of culturally sensitive care, celebrate successful institutions and leaders, and call attention to the work that has yet to be done.
I worked with the students to develop a poster show to display their research. Originally, the exhibit was to be displayed at the Rodolfo “Corky” Gonzales Branch Library; however, due to COVID, the exhibit was moved to the Anderson Academic Commons.
