On this episode of Dimensions of Diversity, host Lloyd Freeman welcomes Brentin Mock, writer and editor for Bloomberg CityLab, and Sabrina Saunders Mosby, President & CEO of Vibrant Pittsburgh, to discuss the disparities and living standards of minorities, specifically Black women in the city of Pittsburgh. The conversation stems from Brentin's 2019 Bloomberg article, which details data from a study that shows that despite its reputation as a fairly livable city, Pittsburgh does not deliver the same life outcomes for its White residents as it does for its Black residents, specifically Black women. These disparities range from healthcare outcomes to education to poverty rates and more. The group explores the history of racial disparities in the city, and how outcomes have evolved since the study was published. Saunders Mosby sheds light on how Vibrant Pittsburgh is working to enact change in this arena and beyond. The organization provides resources and information for over 150 companies on workplace inclusion, and the team is focused on partnering with businesses to develop practices and policies that build more inclusive and diverse workplaces. To round out the episode, Freeman is joined by colleague Shawnna Williams for a special segment of DEI Today to discuss a recent op-ed that explores the idea of whether or not doctors should wear body cameras to combat racism within the healthcare system. Dimensions of Diversity is a podcast created by Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney, highlighting diversity in the workplace. Hosted by Lloyd Freeman, Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer, the podcast features meaningful conversations with industry and community leaders working to advance D&I.

This week we're sharing an episode of Living for We, a podcast focused on the experiences of Black Women in Cleveland. Host Marlene Harris-Taylor uncovers how Cleveland was labeled the “Least Livable” city for Black women in a 2020 Bloomberg CityLab article. Bloomberg CityLab reporter Brentin Mock shares the story behind the livability index and how he worked with a Pittsburgh researcher who gathered the data. On the heels of the ranking, Black women in Cleveland are exploring how to finally escape from tropes such as the “strong Black woman” in order to move the needle toward a more equitable and livable city.

Despite a plea from Abigail Adams to her husband to “Remember the Ladies,” women, especially married women, didn't have many legal rights in the Early Republic. Even so, women used existing legal structures to advocate for themselves and their children, leaning on their dependent status and the obligations of their husbands and the state to provide for them.  I'm joined this week by Dr. ​​Jacqueline Beatty, Assistant Professor of History at York College of Pennsylvania, and author of In Dependence: Women and the Patriarchal State in Revolutionary America.

Reparations for slavery in the U.S. aren't happening any time soon. But there are other countries that have compensated populations for persecution. This week, the Pay Check heads to the U.K., which is in the midst of what it calls a "compensation scheme" to pay back Black residents known as The Windrush Generation. Olivia Konotey-Ahulu and Brentin Mock dig into why it's less of a model and more of a cautionary tale. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com

With incidents of serious injuries and deaths at the hands of police, cities face the costs of settlements and jury verdicts. Some of these cases mean millions of dollars paid. How do cities pay for this? What does it mean to city budgets? And how is it that someone is making money off of this? Our guest is Brentin Mock, veteran journalist; he’ll discuss his article “How Cities Offload the Cost of Police Brutality,” ( https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-06-04/the-financial-toll-of-police-brutality-to-cities ) which appeared in June in Bloomberg’s CityLab.com.

Brentin Mock, staff writer for CityLab, reports on the role of justice and civil rights in the laws and policies that govern our lives, particularly in the urban environment. He has a long history of reporting on environmental justice and voting rights, and voter suppression.  Monument Lab speaks to Mock about his recent piece for CityLab “The Strangest Form of White Flight,” a part of a larger series on the Cityhood movement in Georgia, which Mock describes as a Brexit-style secession to carve up new cities informed by racial politics and legacies of segregation.

After 10 years of reporting on race, culture, and civil rights, Brentin Mock embraced environmental issues as his new beat. That was in 2008. He has since become a leading voice highlighting environmental racism in America. He joins show host, Peterson Toscano to talk about pollution and segregation. Brentin also speaks candidly about failures of predominately white environmental organizations who attempt to reach out to people of color. He shares why these attempts fails and what climate advocates can do to build a more diverse coalition. Also joining us is Dr. Natasha DeJarnett, environmental health policy analyst from the American Public Health Association. She shares with us the statistics on historical and contemporary pollution and how air and water pollution pose severe health risks for everyone, but espeically people of color in the USA. Art House Joining us in the Art House today is poet Tyree Daye. As an African-American man living in the the US South, Tyree weaves together stories and voices from his family. He artistically expresses the collective trauma they have experienced and the deep insights passed down. Rivers, water, and flooding continually come up in his book of poetry called River Hymns. We will talk about his work and Tyree will read some for us. Puzzler You are on a break with a co-worker, let's call him Murphy. You tell Murphy about a climate change conference you attended hoping to engage him in conversation. Murphy blurts out, "Seriously. I never pegged you as one of those save the whales and the polar bears kinda person. The way I see it, humans are the most adaptable beings on earth. Whatever is coming our way, we will be able to handle it. Sucks for other creatures, but humans will be just fine." Murphy has put just you in a certain environmental box. It may or may not be a fit for you. But how can you respond to Murphy to help crack open the conversation? Send Peterson your answers. Leave your name, contact info, and where you are from. Get back to him by July, 15, 2018. You can email your answers to radio @ citizensclimate.org or better yet leave a voicemail of 3 minutes or less at 570.483.8194.
