Resumen

There is a need for health professionals to identify social determinants of health (SDOH) and understand the role they play in patients' health. In fall 2019, authors taught health care studies students about SDOH using a modified privilege walk to show how privilege as SDOH can impact health. This novel approach to teach about privilege and SDOH is even more relevant in today's COVID-19 world. It is our hope that those with more privilege will (1) have increased awareness and sensitivity and (2) use their voice and power to advocate for underserved communities who are disproportionately affected by historical injustices.
