** Race + Power Weekly
------------------------------------------------------------

In today’s Race + Power newsletter, we look at how policy could be a corrective measure to disparities within incarceration, healthcare, and the welfare system. First, a recent report details women’s incarceration in America ([link removed]) . Next, bias in medical research affects women’s healthcare ([link removed]) and access to health innovations, but a White House initiative aims to redress this disparity. Then, the US criminal legal and family welfare systems both disproportionately punish poor and Black families ([link removed]) . A report by the Prison Policy Initiative argues they are deeply intertwined. Finally, The Sentencing Project’s codirector of research, Nazgol Ghandnoosh, talks about the work to be done to address disparities in
incarceration ([link removed]) .
