Ashanti Daniel
Ashanti Daniel, BSN, RN has been an advocate with several chronic illness non-profit organizations, and has shared her story in their
events, the
national press, and to
congress. Ashanti is a Black woman, a disabled RN, and single mother living with ME in Southern California. She speaks powerfully not just to what it is to live with a chronic illness like ME, but what it is like to try to get appropriate care as a Black woman navigating the structural racism of our health care system.
As a former healthcare professional and patient advocate, Ashanti has been educating women of color about ME/CFS and Long COVID—while working to secure recognition and better research as well as care for patients.“
