Lupus Awareness Part I — Cheri Perron

Cherri Perron went from meeting Bill Clinton in high school, one of five black students in her college program to being diagnosed with lupus - an autoimmune disease overwhelmingly affecting women of color. She is dedicated to helping people living with lupus and not letting it define her. I spoke to her about lupus and the topic of race in Arkansaw, where she lived under Jim Crow law.
