Watch and Tell

Unnatural Causes documentary logo

The U.S. spends more than twice per person on healthcare than the average industrialized country, yet our average life expectancy ranks 30th in the world. Issues like this are the focus of this series, which presents a disturbing and startling analysis of the powerful role that economic and racial inequalities play in undermining our health.

This breakthrough PBS series was broadcast every Sunday in April 2009 on Wisconsin Public Television.
