1.Please watch the two films below. The first film is 76 Days - this was first full documentary that came out in 2020. It explores COVID-19 in Wuhan from the beginning of the pandemic. This can provide context to issues that many places faced as well as highlight possible concerns/issues that arose in practice. This recording also does include a talk-back with the Director. The second film is the Color of Care, which came out in 2022. This focuses more explicitly on COVID-19 as the backdrop for the discussion of health inequities among communities of color within the healthcare system within the United States. This can provide some context to issues of disparities while also highlighting linkages to social determinants of health. COVID-19:NPR ArticleA Doc About Wuhan's Lockdown Was 'Too Real' For My Wuhan-Born Dad.

2. Write a letter to governmental administration and potential implications on Health Equity Issues-Letter.There is a strong linkage between politics, policies, practices, and health outcomes both within countries and across global communities. This relationship is something that we will explore throughout this semester. To center our work this semester, we will begin with an exploration of the COVID-19 pandemic through a series of documentaries. For this assignment, you will need to watch the documentaries and use this as a basis to think about how these issues may be both unique to the country of focus as well as those issues that cut across varied societies. Furthermore, you should use this time to begin to think about a country of focus for your particular main course paper. Some things you might consider doing while working on this assignment include:1) exploring general articles nationally and globally on the views surrounding the potential for your potential country of interest to support addressing global social justice/health equity issues surrounding COVID-19. 2) exploring what the general governmental structure is within your potential country of interest and how they are globally interconnected or not. 3) exploring the nature of the relationship between the United States and your potential country of interest.4) exploring resources beyond print/word-based news to also include videos, etc. Based upon what you watch and read from your exploration, you will then write a letter to the leader of the country that you have selected (or are considering) for your primary assignment in the class. Your role in writing this letter is to serve as a representative of the United States to that country (e.g. diplomat, UN/WHO representative, etc.).In this letter, you will be writing to discuss how your intermediary role may could best support addressing social issues being faced in our times and how in addressing these issues there could be steps toward addressing inequities and shrinking the existing health disparities that exist and more pointedly address the current COVID-19 pandemic. Keep this question in your mind as you are watching and taking things in, "as a nation that various nations look to, how is the United States set to move forward in this global society?"This letter should be fairly brief and appromixately 1-2 pages, double-spaced, 12-point Times New Roman font, with 1" margins.
