The first experience was listening to our first plenary speaker, Kitcki Carroll, explain the long history of the continual marginalization of the native persons in the United States and the outcomes of such horrid actions. Hearing how those in positions of power continually drowned their voices out caused me to reflect on power dynamics that are at play today. Such a powerful session lead me to reflect on myself and my choices and envisioning the type of career (and life) I want and how I will make intentional disruptions to advance health equity.<\/p>\n<p>Not only was I inspired by Carroll\u2019s call to action, but my cohort and myself were able to meet the founder of the conference who was so encouraging and welcoming. \u00a0Magda Peck told us that we were not going to be leaders in the future, but we are leaders now. To meet someone who has made such an impact in our field and who took time to speak with us and welcome us as peers reassured me that I am in the right career with the right people!<\/p>\n<p><em>Lacy Campbell, BS,\u00a0is a second-year MPH student, concentrating in Maternal and Child Health.
