"Racism produces subtle brain changes that lead to increased disease risk in Black populations" Our team’s research shows that the everyday burden of racism affects the function and structure of the brain. In turn, these changes play a major role in risk for health problems."

“Whiteness” doesn’t just refer to white people. It refers to white being treated as the standard to which everything else is measured. An example is having to use “Black” as a qualifier in searches. As Amazon shows, there are “women” (ie white) and then there are “Black women.”

The remains of more than 100,000 Native Americans are held by prestigious U.S. institutions, despite a 1990 law meant to return them to tribal nations. Here’s how the ancestors were stolen — and how tribes are working to get them back. propublica.org/article/repatr…

It’s infuriating when it’s practically impossible to cancel something - gym membership, magazine subscription - that was so easy to sign up for. Seeing the FTC put an end to that is one more reason I’m thankful for the Biden-Harris administration.
