Bernadette Atuahene initially moved to Detroit, Michigan to study squatters rights. But she discovered a more urgent issue once there— that many Black residents were losing their homes.

Certain populations are disproportionately affected by neurological diseases, including Parkinson's and other neurodegenerative diseases. A lot of work remains to be done to improve brain health outcomes and promote healthy brain aging across the lifespan, particularly for minoritized, underrepresented populations. Including participants from diverse backgrounds in research helps ensure that the results from studies and clinical trials in the field are valid, generalizable, and representative of all individuals affected by these diseases. In this episode, Dr. Monica Rivera-Mindt discusses brain health inequities in neurodegenerative diseases, her work using culturally informed community-engaged research methods to improve representation in research studies, important gaps in the literature, lessons learned from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) Diversity Task Force that could be applied in Parkinson's disease research, and more. Monica is Professor of Psychology, Latinx studies, and African and African American studies at Fordham University, and she has a joint appointment as Professor of Neurology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

The United States spends more on healthcare than any other high-income country, yet we have some of the worst population health outcomes. Our health care system is designed in such a way that racial and ethnic disparities are inevitable, and the differences are extreme: the life expectancy difference between white women and black men is over a decade. How can we fix the system to ensure health care equity for all?  A new National Academies report called Ending Unequal Treatment: Strategies to Achieve Equitable Health Care and Optimal Health for All tackles this question. Building on a 2003 report on racial and ethnic disparities in healthcare, the new report finds that little progress has been made in closing those equity gaps over the past two decades. On this episode, host Sara Frueh talks to Georges Benjamin, cochair of the report committee and executive director of the American Public Health Association. They discuss how the health care system creates disparities and how we can fix them.  Resources:  Read the National Academies reports on health care inequality: Unequal Treatment: Confronting Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Health Care (2003), and Ending Unequal Treatment: Strategies to Achieve Equitable Health Care and Optimal Health for All (2024)

In her new book Punished for Dreaming: How School Reform Harms Black Children and How We Heal, Dr. Bettina Love says that Black public school students like her in the 1980s and 1990s were "labeled disposable because of our zip code, test scores, and Black skin." Dr. Love is this year's winner of the Stowe Prize for Literary Activism. She joins us to explain how she sees anti-Black racism baked into U.S. education policy. And Professor Anthony Abraham Jack, author of Class Dismissed: When Colleges Ignore Inequality & Students Pay the Price says there is more to making college campuses inclusive than admitting a diverse student body.

Moving the needle on health care access and health disparities is no easy task. Inequities for people of color are embedded in the U.S. health system, shaping their health care journeys and often leading to outcomes worse than those experienced by white Americans. That's where Dr. Chris Pernell, director of the NAACP's Center for Health Equity, comes in. “Sometimes you got to make those systems bend, and other times you got to disrupt those systems, innovate and invent, and create and design.” In this episode of The Dose podcast, host Joel Bervell talks to Dr. Pernell about her work on health equity, the systems that need to be disrupted, and the innovations needed to build a more inclusive health system.

A deep and wide ranging conversation with sociologist Jessica Calarco, focusing on educational disparities, class privilege, and social inequities. Key topics included the hidden curriculum in schools, the role of community colleges, and tax policies aimed at economic equality. The conversation began with a focus on the gap between the privileged and the marginalized and the differences in class and race and what the research reveals as well as the question of the effect of inequities on immigrants, the ongoing influence of neoliberal Austrian economists beginning during the New Deal emerged as did the role of tech inequities in education. Charter schools were discussed in the context of inequities and so was the role of patriarchy and the need for a diverse educational workforce and overemphasis on ivy league schools. Professor Calarco also spoke of how she conducts her research and the role of both trade schools and community colleges. She critiqued corporate profit motives, worker exploitation, and the decline of labor unions, proposing policy measures like access to essential services and equitable care responsibilities. She also spoke of the consequences on education of Citizens United and provided Insights on paid leave and work-hour limits, with a preview of future research on evangelical Christianity's impact on social safety nets. She concluded with three core changes in policy to pursue to reduce inequities.

Takeaways Lucy Howell started her business, FamilySync Media, as a virtual assistant after leaving her job as a dental nurse during the COVID-19 pandemic. She rebranded her business to focus on working with parent-based businesses and offers services such as podcast management and social media. Lucy hosts the podcast Balancing Business and Babies, in which she interviews parents about how they manage work and parenting. She opens up about her struggle with infertility and how she eventually became a mother, emphasizing the importance of mindset and finding inner peace. The adoption process can be long and complicated, and reform is needed to make it more efficient and accessible. Many good and genuine people want to become foster parents or adoptive parents, but the current system makes it difficult for them. The lack of universal healthcare in the United States makes the concept of free IVF in the UK mind-boggling. Societal expectations and cultural narratives often place a high value on women based on their ability to bear children, which can be detrimental and unfair. Working parents often face challenges and are disadvantaged by government systems and policies, such as childcare costs and custody battles. There is a need for positive change and support for families and a shift in societal attitudes towards families and parenting.

Welcome back to your Daily Detroit, your all-local podcast sharing what to know and where to go in Southeast Michigan. First, a shout-out to Mickey Lyons, who recently brought us a 1930s Detrola tabletop radio. Detroit has a rich history of manufacturing beyond cars, including radios for the working person. This beautiful piece now has a special place in our studio. We talk a little about the fascinating history of Detroit's manufacturing legacy and how it has shaped the city's identity beyond the automotive industry. Everyone on the team is getting their chance at reactions to the national presidential news. Fletcher and I discuss the implications for Detroit and Michigan, given Biden's past support for the area. We explore how this decision might affect local policies, federal support, and the political landscape in Michigan. Fletcher shares his perspective, noting the significance of Kamala Harris's candidacy as the first African American and Asian American woman major presidential candidate. He emphasizes the importance of broader demographic support for her campaign.  We also touch on the excitement within his community, particularly among members of sororities and fraternities like the AKA, to which Kamala Harris belongs. This endorsement has sparked a wave of enthusiasm and pride, and we explore the cultural and social impact of her candidacy on these communities. And finally, we discuss a piece by Outlier Media, look at auto insurance reform and how it hasn't really mean savings for cities like Detroit and communities of color.
