This broke me. Just started ugly crying about 10 seconds in and couldn't stop. Tell THESE stories. Heal THIS pain. We've spent the last five days talking about George Floyd, police, and property damage. SHOW BLACK HUMANITY. SEE US!!!

George Floyd survived Covid-19 in April to die at the knee of a police officer in May. Being Black in the vicinity of a cop is more dangerous than infection with a novel, untreatable pathogen.

I increasingly believe that even if they donโ€™t say it, many of our elected officials are trying to force our country down the โ€œherd immunityโ€ approach that failed so miserably in Sweden, Brazil & England. This approach would be a travesty in a country the size of the US.

Trump is right: If we stop testing, weโ€™ll have fewer cases of corona. Just like if Black people stop recording cops, weโ€™ll have fewer cases of police brutality.

โ€œCovid-19 has been the ultimate revealer of what we as a global health community have been saying and calling attention to for far too long: End the divisiveness between diseases.โ€ Princess Dina Mired edition.cnn.com/2020/06/20/opiโ€ฆ

We urge VP Joe Biden to go beyond responding to this pandemic. We healthcare workers urge you to work on pandemic preparedness so we donโ€™t find ourselves here again. #biden #covid19 โ€œHealth Workers Call on Joe Biden for a Bold Pandemic Prevention Planโ€ docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIโ€ฆ

โ€œI encourage my STEM colleagues to think seriously about who is more professional. Is it the man who wears button-down shirts or the person who is knowledgeable in their field?...A true professional doesnโ€™t have a prescribed appearance.โ€œ #blackSTEM #profilingintheivory

Terrific study by @WeinbergerDan and Yale School of Public Health colleagues in JAMA Internal Medicine estimating that actual number of #COVID19 deaths were likely ~30% higher than the number tallied in the United States from March to May 2020 ja.ma/31DapZU

Amidst the national uprising for racial justice, โ€™Hamiltonโ€™ star Daveed Diggs and a collective of Black artists created this evocative video inspired by Frederick Douglassโ€™ โ€˜What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?โ€™

Just finished an enriching week as part of Health Disparitiesโ€™s #HDRI2020! Great to learn from the leadership, researchers, and other scholars on charting the future of health disparities research in the US. Thank you Health Disparities!
