HBCU presidents encourage Black people to participate in COVID-19 vaccine trial
On a recent Sunday, photos of two Black men graced the sanctuary of First Grace United Methodist Church in New Orleans as Shawn Moses Anglim spoke during “a little children’s moment.”
The two church members pictured, Dillard University president Walter Kimbrough and pediatrician Ted Atkinson, were lifted up as role models for the children because they are participating in a COVID-19 vaccine study at Ochsner Medical Center in New Orleans.
