In today’s episode — the second installment of our conversation between MAHA and Public Health — we bring together veteran public health leaders and grassroots activists from Ohio’s Make America Healthy Again chapter, two sides that allegedly don't agree on much.
Our first conversation raised big questions. Some asked: Why even engage? At a time when devastating cuts are hitting public health and science, and America’s public health mission is being reshaped, many believe this moment calls for a fight — not a dialogue.
But we chose conversation. And today's conversation took us straight to the fault lines of some of the most divisive health issues in America today.
What we heard surprised us. Some positions weren’t as hardened as we expected. Some people, not as dug in.
There’s tension and disagreement — but also moments of agreement, and more than just a flicker of hope.
