My takeaways: ☝🏽 Black patients who have been evaluated for work/disability-related lung function impairment should be encouraged to seek re-evaluation. This is a tremendous opportunity to repair material harms which exacerbate racial capitalism. (see:…

@jcbecker_econ I have some more complicated feelings about these kinds of critiques, namely because working in interdisciplinary spaces, I observe lots of folks trying to uphold the status quo. See for example, this fantastic piece: https://t.co/uB6uZTTDFa

mitigating the effects of the pandemic. @WhitneyEpi I think you'd be really interested in hearing about this work, given your interest in racialized capitalism in public health. 3/4 https://t.co/uB6uZTTDFa

@JoTyabji Very US centric but a very interesting read! https://t.co/0UBmrvz7yg

Racism is a public health crisis!

@ProfessaJay @soashworth I cited a tweet at the start of this paper but then had to wrangle with the journal over the formatting. So don’t spend you too much energy getting attached to a format if you’re publishing with a journal: https://t.co/9ZL8qTRI8m

Blacks also thought to have lower lung capacity and therefore ore difficult to access diability pensions both in the past and present. See, for example: https://t.co/uB6uZTTDFa

Decisionmakers have been reluctant to release industry-specific data regarding #COVID19 cases, deaths, and hospitalizations, obscuring the role of occupational hazards as root causes of disease and racial/ethnic health disparities. https://t.co/6qmm6A0A…
