    About Jane E. Mitchell

    About "Everybody's Work: Healing What Hurts Us All" Documentary

    Like blood in our veins, racism pervades healthcare. It pushes some people’s pain, voices, and bodies aside. It distorts care and kills people faster, but it continues to be an invisible risk factor. Too many continue to deny or look past this reality — that this system meant to heal is causing harm. But some fearless nurses are saying it’s time to get to work. Address human suffering. Advocate for the voiceless. This is where nursing began. But to heal, it will take everyone standing up and speaking out. Health justice, after all, is everybody’s work.
