In this week’s Health Justice newsletter, we explore some ways practitioners are breaking down harmful systems and building up healthier ones. First, a lab at Queens College draws on the seminal work of Frantz Fanon to decolonize the field of psychology. Then, a recent study shows that rising healthcare costs affect not only individual health outcomes but also broader trends in wages and employment. It’s clear health is inextricably linked to the economy and inequality: baby bonds are a powerful policy tool to help level the playing field and improve child and family wellbeing across generations.
