Organ donation: If black lives matter, then this is an opportunity to prove it

Organ donation: If black lives matter, then this is an opportunity to prove it A charity wants more black people to donate their organs after only 17 people from the African Caribbean community donated a kidney last year.

Black patients who need a kidney wait, on average, more than a year longer than white patients, says the African Caribbean Leukaemia Trust (ACLT).

At least 250 African Caribbean patients died last year waiting for a donor. BBC Newsbeat
