Outside/Inside: NLM Traveling Exhibit

Outside/Inside: Immigration, Migration, and Health Care in the United States

Immigration is an important part of the American story. This exhibition explores the history of ideas about immigrant health, and immigrants’ and migrants’ changing experiences with U.S. health care since late 1800s. During this history, health care and medicine played a role in inclusion and exclusion, in “assimilation” and discrimination, in dividing communities and strengthening them.

Outside/Inside: Immigration, Migration, and Health Care in the United States portrays the history that reminds us that we all share a desire to protect our health and well-being.
