there is no health justice until there is racial justice
***
there is no health justice until disparity remains between
*who gets sick,
*who suffers higher incidences of maternal and infant mortality,
*who is more likely to be exposed to lead and other toxins,
*who is more likely to die from untreated common illnesses like the flu and pneumonia,
*who is more likely to develop heart disease, diabetes, and fibroids
*who has access to mental health care and dr visits (and can expect to be treated with dignity during those visits)
***
let's keep fighting, strategizing, organizing, protesting, boycotting, caring for one another, dreaming up, thinking hard, looking inward, pushing forward, finding systemic patterns, and loving fiercely
