Social Determinants of Health DVD Available in Asian Languages (posted 2/22)

California Newsreel in association with the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies in December of 2009 released a documentary series entitled Unnatural Causes aimed at tackling the root causes of our alarming socio-economic and racial inequities in health.  The series was presented for public television by the National Minority Consortia and is now available on DVD in various Asian languages.  The viewer can choose from English, Cantonese, Mandarin, Hmong, Lao and Vietnamese audio with English and / or Mandarin subtitles.  The four-hour series crisscrosses the nation, uncovering startling new findings that suggest there is much more to our health than bad habits, health care, or unlucky genes. The social circumstances in which we are born, live, and work can actually get under our skin and disrupt our physiology as much as germs and viruses.  For more information about the series click here.  To buy the DVD click here.
