This month’s Health Justice newsletter features three key priorities for the field: reclaiming bodily autonomy and choice, bridging health equity with infrastructure projects, and transforming workplace conditions for healthcare workers. Our first piece kicks off a new health justice series by Sonia Sarkar—Reclaiming Control: The History and Future of Choice in Our Health—with an introduction to the history of racist and sexist modes of control in US healthcare, and to the movements fighting back. Next, we look at how grassroots organizations are transforming infrastructure to center health equity. Turning to healthcare as a workplace, we explore how worker co-ops can improve a system of poor pay and conditions for millions of workers. Finally, the NPQ team is expanding: we’re hiring a senior editor for our Health Justice desk!
