The Student National Medical Association, the Emergency Medicine Interest Group and Benjamin Rush Institute invite you to enjoy some food and beverages while screening CODE BLACK, a documentary offering a tense, doctor’s-eye view right into the heart of the healthcare debate—bringing us face to face with young doctors-in-training as they wrestle openly with both their ideals and with the realities of saving lives in a complex and overburdened system.

The full-length screening event will feature a panel discussion after the film with BRI executive director, Dr. Beth Haynes, and Michael Seitzman, producer of the CBS show based off of this documentary. Seating is limited, so be sure to RSVP early by clicking on the green "Register" link, above right.

From the film's website:
"The West has positioned itself as the protagonist of development, giving rise to a vast multi-billion dollar poverty industry — the business of doing good has never been better. Yet the results have been mixed, in some cases even catastrophic, and leaders in the developing world are growing increasingly vocal in calling for change. Drawing from over 200 interviews filmed in 20 countries, Poverty, Inc. unearths an uncomfortable side of charity we can no longer ignore."
