* Ensure racial/ethnic diversity of journal authors and reviewers

* Increase the quality and quantity of published content on racial
health equity

* Address our own biases as part of the publishing enterprise

* Lead transformation in improving racial equity alongside other
health-associated journals

Judith (Judy) Heumann, an internationally recognized disability
advocate, passed away last weekend. She was 75 years old.

Heumann, who contracted polio as a small child, remained a quadriplegic
throughout her life. Her career as an activist began immediately, as she
and her family fought to enroll her in elementary school, amid concerns
that her wheelchair could cause a safety hazard during emergencies.
Heumann came into the national spotlight in 1977, when she organized a
demonstration to pressure the federal government to enforce legislation
outlawing discrimination against disabled people in federally funded
institutions.

Heumann later served in both the Clinton and Obama administrations, and
held positions as an advisor, fellow, or board member for a wide array
of national and international organizations.

In a companion piece to Health Affairs' October 2022 Disability and
Health issue
<[link removed]>,
Heumann was interviewed by issue advisors Lisa Iezzoni and Javier Robles
<[link removed]> about her remarkable career and the work
she thought still lay ahead to achieve equity for disabled people.
