10/26/2019 0 Comments Day 1My sleep schedule is so wack right now. I made the wise decision the night before the beginning of our Breakout trip that I would stay up playing Secret Hitler until 4:30 AM, when we would go to Philadelphia and catch our flight. Of course, I still don’t know what Philly looks like because I slept the whole way there. After a few mishaps, including some ticket misprints and an exceptionally fast revolving door, we managed to catch a few mini naps on the plane until we landed in Dallas. Two episodes of Brooklyn 99 later, we arrived in Tulsa, Oklahoma, which was surprisingly warmer than I expected. Unfortunately, Brayan’s luggage didn’t come through. Fortunately, Tally’s, a famous Route 66 diner known for having the best chicken-fried steak in Oklahoma, was nearby and we were starving. There was this sign of a pig with a demonic grin about to cannibalize some barbecued ribs which completely contrasted Tally’s retro interior. I realized there was a thing as too much gravy and cheese, and I don’t think anybody finished their meals, but it was so, so satisfying to have a good biscuit in what felt like ages.

This trip aims to explore Native American experiences with healthcare in the US, including both the prominent issues and the solutions being worked towards. The trip will take place in Tulsa, a city that approximately 30,000 Native Americans call home, as well as on the Osage Nation, a Native American reservation just outside of Tulsa. By talking to various community partners from the University of Tulsa, to Non-Government Organizations, to healthcare providers, we will aim to hear from various perspectives to begin to gather an understanding of what it means to be a Native American seeking healthcare in the United States today.AuthorNatasha Thomas '20 |
