Does the U.S. Healthcare System Favor the White and Wealthy?

Dr. Thomas Fisher witnessed the pressures of the pandemic first-hand as an emergency physician. He speaks with Michel Martin about his new book --"The Emergency: A Year of Healing and Heartbreak in a Chicago E.R." -- and the state of American healthcare.
