Across the country, people of color are dying of the novel coronavirus at astonishing and disproportionate rates. It’s further proof that poverty, access to health care, medical discrimination, and race are intertwined in America.

We demand that this stark racial disparity be addressed, now. We need more data about the race of those who are hospitalized and dying of coronavirus and how the White House plans to address this heightened tragedy. Add your name today:

In Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, African Americans account for 70 percent of those killed by this virus, yet are only 26 percent of the population.

As Dr. Fauci said, this crisis is "shining a bright light on how unacceptable" the disparity is between the health and wellbeings of black and brown Americans and their white counterparts.

We demand that this disparity be addressed and that public health officials release data to aid in our fight against coronavirus in our most vulnerable communities. If you’re with us, sign here.

For Justice,
