Dear John,

Yesterday, we released the fifth episode of our new health equity
podcast, Research and Justice For All
.

The fifth episode

features an interview with Karen DeSalvo of Google on how to leverage
data and partnerships to drive positive, equitable health outcomes. The
discussion also explores the public and private sector approaches to
promoting health equity.

Racism-Conscious Health Policy

In their article in the October issue of Health Affairs, Shekinah
Fashaw-Walters and Cydney McGuire document a framework for a
racism-conscious approach to policy making
.

They find that in contrast to race-neutral or race-based policies,
racism-conscious policies "allow policy makers to address racism by
identifying, understanding, and responding to the structural barriers
and inequities that give rise to" the limitations imposed on minoritized
groups.

They note that racism-conscious health policy has two foundational
principles: engage and center marginalized groups and conduct ongoing
policy analysis.

The five steps of the racism-conscious health policy framework are:
* Examine current inequities

* Identify inequity-related policies

* Dissect policy mechanisms and consequences

* Elucidate the impact of racism

* Create new racism-conscious health policies that consider
implementation strategies

For more on this paper, watch a video abstract
featuring author
Cydney McGuire below!

Also, join us tomorrow for a virtual seminar on Health Equity and the
Role of Racism-Conscious Policymaking

featuring author Shekinah Fashaw-Walters.

The October 2023 issue of Health Affairs covers the theme of Tackling
Structural Racism In Health.

In conjunction with the issue's release, we will be premiering a short
film entitled "Tackling Structural Racism in Health: A Conversation
."

We convened a panel of experts, including Dr. Michael Cary, Dr. Chanelle
Diaz, and Dr. Siobhan Wescott, to discuss ideas from the October 2023
journal issue on systemic racism and health care.

Topics include immigration, AI, and the interplay between policy and
lived experience in health.

Watch the short film to learn more about how structural racism manifests
in health and health care.
