S3 Ep. 22 Exploring the Tai Qi of Photovoice with Dr. Caroline Wang
"I am a student of photovoice in what I learn about my own heart and in what I learn from the people who take photographs, tell stories, and advocate to policy makers... Had it been in my power, I would have given you the moon."
In this episode, Dr. Caroline Wang reads aloud her paper, which was selected as a 2022 Health Promotion Practice's Paper of the Year winner. Her introspection and reflection on life and place are timeless, and she talks about the inception of photovoice – initially called "photo novella" – as a tool for empowerment education.

S3 Ep. 20 Exploring Community Research Partnerships with Young Cambodian Women with Dr. Jerusha Nelson-Peterman, Dr. Lindiwe Sibeko, Dr. Lorraine S. Cordeiro, Nora Tang, and Mory Chhom
"CBPR is more than these tenants of what constitutes community engaged research. It's about really thinking about how you are going to demonstrate your commitment to a community... and to keep that respect intact regardless of what the institute might demand of you, because they're often at odds. And I think that keeping that front and center really shows your commitment to the process and your authentic respect of the process."
In this episode, Mory Chhom is in conversation with Dr. Jerusha Nelson-Peterman, Dr. Lindiwe Sibeko, Nora Tang, and Dr. Lorraine Cordeiro. They discuss the Cambodian experience in Lowell, Massachusetts, as well as how they navigate the predictable and unpredictable challenges of being insiders and outsiders. They close by reminding us what it means to do authentic community-based participatory research.

In this episode, Dr. Keon Gilbert is in conversation with Dr. Darrell Hudson.

They help distinguish between historical and contemporary racism, and they also unpack hyper-vigilance and the anticipatory stress and expectations that come from negative racist experiences. They encourage us to think about the permanence of racism and its impact on stress and wealth.

S3 Ep. 15 Exploring Technical Assistance for Small Minnesota Food Retailers with Liana Schreiber and Alex Groten
In this episode, Liana Schreiber and Alex Groten discuss a pilot intervention in which public health practitioners provided technical assistance to managers/owners of small food retail stores in Minnesota in order to increase healthy options through a variety of strategies including minimum stocking standards. They help shift the perception that health departments' only function is to regulate the food retail space; public health can be a supportive, helpful partner to food retailers when co-creating an action plan on how to improve community health. Due to the partnerships and evaluation success, two of the stores were able to receive larger scale infrastructure grants.

S3 Ep. 13 Exploring Unequal Treatment 20 Years Later with Dr. Brian Smedley and Dr. Keon Gilbert
"There's no single discipline that's gonna be able to really understand how structures and systems have been created to produce racial inequality in this country... Interdisciplinary collaboration is key to this work, particularly if we are focused on identifying and dismantling systemic racism."
In this episode, Dr. Keon Gilbert is in conversation with Dr. Brian Smedley, the Study Director at the Institute of Medicine for the landmark report entitled “Unequal Treatment: Confronting Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Health Care." Twenty years later, they reflect back on the paper as a beacon for HPP's “What is Antiracism in Health Promotion Practice?” series. Dr. Smedley calls for robust, comprehensive data collection, monitoring, and public reporting in order to monitor for access, quality of care, and outcomes of care.

They also note that letters can be used to heal, letters can be used to name, letters can be used to dismantle, and letters can be used to address.

S3 Ep. 7 Exploring White Supremacist Funding Practices with Dr. Liz Chen, Dr. Deshira Wallace, Dr. Cristina Leos, and Dr. Yesenia Merino
"Instead of training our public health students to work under the umbrella of a broken system or a system that can be greatly improved, it seems more efficient to turn the conversation and start to think through: how can we strengthen the funding organizations and their ability to support diverse scholars and diverse community orgs and projects to take a more proactive stance in leading to equity?"
In this episode, Dr. Liz Chen, Dr. Deshira Wallace, Dr. Cristina Leos, and Dr. Yesenia Merino help us explore aspects of White supremacy culture and how it shows up in the grants process. They identify issues including power hoarding, perfectionism, urgency, and paternalism, as well as also offer some antidotes, like transparency, creativity, and reimagining the funding systems.

S3 Ep. 5 Exploring an Abolitionist Perspective on the Carceral Apparatus in Order to Eliminate Hepatitis C with Prashasti Bhatnagar and Sonia Canzater
"Our main goal or argument is: HCV rates cannot be changed or eliminated if we cannot meaningfully reduce incarceration rates and our reliance on the carceral apparatus, and reallocating funds from this apparatus to community-based prevention efforts will bolster elimination efforts for Hepatitis C and also improve overall societal outcomes."
In this episode, Prashasti Bhatnagar and Sonia Canzater discuss the need for reinvestment into communities as a preventive approach to decrease incarceration, as well as destigmatization of those experiencing incarceration because it prevents allocation of resources. They also draw attention to the carceral apparatus's failure to provide healthcare and the resulting effects on communities.

S3 Ep. 1 Exploring Antiracism with Dr. Camara Jones and Dr. Keon Gilbert
"If you ask me, the most important thing is: who is at the table and who's not, right? Because –who is at the table and who's not?– determines what's on the agenda and the values that are underlying whatever's going on. So the most important structural intervention that you could make is to involve people who have a strong interest in whatever the proceeding is or whatever the effort's going to be, to be at the decision making table."
In this episode, Arden Castle is in conversation with Dr. Camara Jones and Dr. Keon Gilbert about race, racism, and antiracism. They dissect these definitions, identify patterns in the US and UK, encourage making institutional walls porous, and discuss intergenerational bridging.

S2 Ep. 43 Exploring Indigenous Food Taxes to Enhance Navajo Nation Food Security with Sean Etsitty and Dr. Valarie Blue Bird Jernigan
"Before that, I was more so involved in exercise in health and wellness, but I realized there's medicine in that connection to people and really talking to people and seeing where they're at and what they need and what resources they need. And I thought, that's such a missing avenue within a lot of Tribal nations. You know, a lot of people go into nations and think, "We can fix this. We know what they need," instead of asking, "What do the people need?"
In this episode, Dr. Valarie Blue Bird Jernigan is in conversation with Sean Etsitty, who orients us to better understand the food taxes in the Navajo Nation. They discuss the power of listening and supporting communities in their path to health, while reminding us of the history of land and public health.

Exploring the Events of 2022: The HPP Podcast's Return from a Brief Pause
This May, 2022 has been a moment of such stark global violence with people turning on each other, and particularly in the United States, the gun violence, mental health crisis, egregious attacks on rights, and so much more. There's just so much going on in our world that is violent. I appreciate you all allowing us to take a short break to finalize the content for this summer. What we have already recorded is profound and important, and we are so excited to bring it to you. But, in the meantime, I think we all need a little space in quiet. I know for me– as an Asian-American, as a woman, as someone in the queer community– it is a powerfully intersectional time, so we needed to take some time to rest and regroup and keep recording, and we are now back for June. If you were missing the HPP Podcast and in a need of some inspirational content, I'm going to link some playlists from our previous episodes that we found particularly inspiring.
Thank you again for allowing us this time, and we are excited to share what we have in store for you this June. Take care and be well.

HPP is one of the Society for Public Health Education's three journals, and it is published by SAGE Journals. Our journal is dedicated to the art and science of health promotion with the broader goals of health equity and social justice.
Each week, we bring journal articles to life and reflect on public health practice. We've taken deep dives into topics like PhotoVoice and arts in public health. We've heard from emerging voices in the field on their work, the future of their work, and their goals for future practice. We've talked about imposter syndrome, the queer perspective in public health, ACEs, intersectionality, the importance of HBCUs, citizen science, academia, precarious work, the application of HIV prevention education in prisons, cigarette marketing on tribal lands, LGBTQ health priorities, what counts as scholarship in public health, black pastors perceptions on the role of sex education, 20 years of pride at Health Promotion Practice, tribal sovereignty, the Empower Action Model, gaps in LGBTQ tobacco research, systems perspectives, decolonization of human centered design, emergency preparedness, Health Promotion Practice internships, emerging technologies, and demystifying the peer review process.

S1 Ep. 14 Exploring the Origin Story of the SHOWED Method: Straight from Roy Shaffer Himself
In this podcast, Bob Strack and Robin Evans-Agnew interview one of the unsung heroes of health promotion practice. Physician-savant Roy Shaffer tells us his story of how he became motivated by his work with marginalized populations as a bush-doctor in Kenya to develop one of the first community-health-worker (CHW) programs to provide education and reliable data collection in hard to reach communities. Amidst a big push by the World Health Organization at that time to develop such programs, Roy was inspired by the newly published work of Paulo Freire to push for empowerment and engagement methods for health promotion. A developer of several useful mnemonics for education, Roy developed the SHOWeD questioning method for encouraging emancipatory dialogue between CHW's and the villagers in the places he would fly into. In this podcast we learn that Nina Wallerstein probably learned about the SHOWeD strategy from Roy during a trip she made to Kenya at that time, including it in her and Ed Bernstein's classic (1988, HEQ) article on empowerment education.
In the 1990's Caroline Wang and Mary Ann Burris adapted the SHOWeD questioning strategy for employment in photovoice, where it remains the principle questioning strategy used by practitioners and researchers to this day.
