Racism is a systemic issue and permeates every aspect of life – including and especially health. Systemic oppression causes inequalities in housing, criminal justice, and so many other factors that worsen and shorten the lives of black and African American people while many who are privileged remain unaware of these very real damages.
This multimedia project by myself, Marcela Sifuentes, Sergio Montanez and Taylor Brown explores these inequities, what causes them, and what steps we can take to start making change – as well as how Black Lives Matter can play a huge part in that.
