Healing Politics: A Doctor’s Journey into the Heart of Our Political Epidemic
THIS LECTURE WILL BE LIVE STREAMED
This event is free and available to the public. OLLI membership is not required.
In his book "Healing Politics" Dr. Abdul El-Sayed draws on his experience as a physician, a public health official, and an epidemiologist to diagnose the causes of our broken political system. As an advocate for social justice, he moves beyond that and gives a prescription and a treatment plan.
This OLLI Reads event will be moderated by Dilip Das, Assistant Vice Provost for Academic Affairs, UM.
Dr. El-Sayed was born in Michigan to parents who emigrated to Detroit from Alexandria, Egypt. He graduated with distinction from the University of Michigan, attended Michigan’s Medical School before accepting a Rhodes Scholarship where he completed a Ph.D. in public health, and served as captain of the men’s lacrosse team. Upon returning to the states, he completed his medical training at Columbia.
Dr. El-Sayed ran for governor in 2018, coming in 2nd behind Gretchen Whitmer.
Our moderator, Dilip Das is Vice Provost for Diversity, Inclusion, & Student Affairs at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. He holds a doctorate in higher education administration, a master’s in science education, and a bachelor’s degree in biology.
