The Humanities Education for Anti-Racism Literacy in the Sciences and Medicine (HEAL) project seeks to provide models and examples of transformative higher education by drawing on humanities research to advance anti-racist practices and pedagogies in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine (STEMM). Beginning with an acknowledgment of pervasive systemic racism, our aim is to center the educational experiences of Black, Native, Indigenous and other students of color to build more accurate narratives about histories of racism in the sciences and medicine, allowing us to better understand persistent underrepresentation and exclusion and to develop educational tools for building a more equitable university and society.
