2023 – An inspiring documentary that explores the impact of MS in Black and African American communities, from Medical Stories, the award-winning docuseries, supported in part by Biogen.
MS IN BLACK AND AFRICAN AMERICANS DOCUMENTARY
Telling new stories about MS in Black and Africans Americans
Until recently, the impact of multiple sclerosis (MS) on the Black and African American communities wasn’t fully understood. We now know that it’s more common than previously thought, and Black and African Americans may be diagnosed later and experience more severe symptoms.
In this documentary, we follow the stories of two inspiring people living with MS—Tyler and Dawn. We also hear from Dr. Mitzi Williams, neurologist, and Dr. Sophia Woodson, nurse practitioner, DNP, APRN-BC, who share their expertise on MS and how it can be managed.
Watch the full documentary above to find out how Tyler and Dawn learned to navigate living with MS after their diagnosis.
Medical Stories is supported in part by Biogen. This episode was not created or produced by Biogen. Everyone’s experience with MS is different. Your healthcare provider should always be your primary source of information.
