@NationalGeographic @history-culture-NationalGeographic Unfortunately you need an account to read this article, but if you are (or will be) in the NYC area you can see an exhibit about the Black Angels at the Staten Island Museum.

The larger exhibit has closed, but much of it can still be seen in a smaller gallery. Or you can view the online version (link below) from anywhere.

Staten Island MuseumApart Together - Staten Island MuseumThis exhibition examines the work, lives, and legacy of the "Black Angels," the mostly Black nursing staff at Sea View Hospital who played an important role in breaking racial barriers among the network of municipal hospitals treating tuberculosis during the mid-1900s. It is centered around the voice of Virginia Allen. Her recollections paint a vivid picture of life as a Black nurse in New York City's public hospital system in the mid-1900s.

Wells and Funda Ustek Spilda find that on-demand nursing companies encourage nurses to work for less pay, fail to provide certainty about scheduling and the amount or nature of work, take little to no accountability for worker safety, and can threaten patient well-being by placing nurses in unfamiliar clinical environments with no onboarding or facility training.

Wife just got home from the hospital. She was eating dinner while we talked.

Me: I moved your shoes into the closet.

Wife: Wait you touched my shoes?

Me: Yeah. I didn’t want the dog to get them.

Wife (dead serious): Go wash your hands. Now. *Thoroughly.*

Me: 😳
