Literally everything in life, including race, gender, and income, can have an impact on health. We introduce the concept of "social determinants of health" by looking at Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation. We analyze the different elements of her life, ranging from her genetics, to her social circle, to society at large, to understand how each of these can play a role in an individual's health. Gender discrimination and its effects on health are also a primary focus, using Ruth Bader Ginsburg's story from the documentary RBG, as well as our own lived experiences. Last, we sip rosé and discuss some high- and low-brow European culture.
