This week, our Health Justice newsletter examines identity and culture. First, a new trend of coffee shops that preferentially hire workers with disabilities is emerging. These businesses may offer better access to jobs, but are they truly inclusive? Next, how did four children survive in the Amazon jungle for over a month? Their story offers valuable lessons for how to support community-centered child development. Then, from the “Remaking the Economy” webinar, not all movement gains in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic are immediately visible. But the groundwork laid will pay off in the years to come. Finally, Invisible No More: Voices from Native America, coedited by Raymond Foxworth and NPQ’s Steve Dubb, is out now.
