An unsettling exploration of the persistence of racism in reproductive healthcare in the US—and why even affluent Black women are imperiled by substandard care.From a leading expert on race, class, maternal health, and reproductive rights.Racism in maternal healthcare is not reserved for the poor. An unsparing picture of inequities in prenatal care and childbirth in the United States, Expecting Inequity: How the Maternal Health Crisis Affects Even the Wealthiest Black Americans (MIT Press, 2026) reveals that not only are black people three to four times more likely to die from a pregnancy-related cause, but racial disparities in maternal mortality persist across income levels. That is, wealthier black people are much more likely to die during pregnancy, childbirth, or the postpartum period than their white counterparts. Focusing on a San Francisco obstetrics clinic that caters to the affluent, Khiara Bridges looks at the choices around prenatal care and childbirth that class-privileged, pregnant black people are making in order to survive what has been called the “black maternal health crisis.”Bridges, whose previous work exposed how race and racism are embedded in maternal healthcare for the poor, draws on two years of participant-observation to show how wealthier black people try to leverage their class privilege to avoid some of the negative effects of their blackness—only to discover that in a country that has never reckoned with its horrific racial past, there is no escaping racism's reach. Throughout the book, engaging, heartbreaking, infuriating stories of women's experiences with pregnancy and prenatal care illustrate how race and racism matter regardless of wealth or status.

Did you know doctors are paid systematically less for procedures on female anatomy? (For example, 45% more to biopsy a penis than a vagina). This shocking reality, highlighted by creator René Jay @bornwithadarktan and Dr. Kemi Doll's book A Terrible Strength, is a baked-in structural issue.In this episode of Our Womanity, host Dr. Rachel Pope sits down with urogynecologist Dr. Jocelyn Fitzgerald—the lead researcher behind the landmark study "Price and Prejudice"—to dismantle the financial architecture failing female patients and their specialists.Dr. Jocelyn Fitzgerald, MD is a board-certified urogynecologist and reconstructive pelvic surgeon at UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital in Pittsburgh, and an assistant professor at the University of Pittsburgh. Her clinical work and research span chronic pelvic pain, female sexual dysfunction, pelvic floor disorders, and genitourinary syndrome of menopause. She is a prominent advocate for equity in women's healthcare, famously publishing research detailing the surgical reimbursement inequities embedded within female anatomy billing.Key Conversation Highlights: The RVU Trap: How the Relative Value Unit (RVU) billing system systematically devalues the female body, gynecologic surgery, and non-surgical menopause visits. "Moms of Medicine" Dilemma: Why society expects OBGYNs to constantly absorb uncompensated emotional labor and primary care duties, diluting their specialized surgical value. The Workforce Crisis: Why post-op "ghost towns" and devalued billing are driving a massive OBGYN shortage, with only six states projected to have adequate care by 2040. Beyond "Lady Stuff": Why menopause is a systemic transition overlapping with cardiology, rheumatology, and neurology, demanding interdisciplinary research. The Allderdice Connection: A fun look back at Rachel and Jocelyn's shared feminist upbringing at Taylor Allderdice High School in Squirrel Hill, Pittsburgh."In medicine, if we don't study it and we don't name it, it's not there. It's just treated as 'lady stuff.'" — Dr. Jocelyn FitzgeraldConnect & Listen:Subscribe to Our Womanity on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, and follow Dr. Rachel Pope on Instagram: @DrRachelPope for daily midlife wellness tips!The Study: Price and Prejudice: Reimbursement of Surgical Care on Male Versus Female Anatomies by Madeline Penn, Donessa Colley, Pratistha Koirala, Dr. Louise King, and Dr. Jocelyn Fitzgerald.

The latest foundational assessment data shows 95 percent of socio-economically disadvantaged children were below curriculum level for maths in Year three. 70 percent of them were more than a year behind. Hora Hora school principal Pat Newman told Heather du Plessis-Allan that children in lower-income families face more uncertainty and disruption. He says people who don't know whether food's on the table or if they're sleeping in a car will be behind. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Why do some businesses thrive while others struggle to survive, even when demand is strong? Is access to capital the missing piece? On this episode of Inside Voices, Georgia Goldburn sits down with Mark Hayles of Better Local Capital to discuss entrepreneurship, economic equity, and the barriers many small business owners face when seeking funding. Together, they explore how access to working capital impacts business growth, why childcare is a critical part of Connecticut's economic infrastructure, and what it will take to create more opportunities for underserved entrepreneurs. The conversation also examines Better Local Capital's CT Childcare Working Capital Financing program, the unique financial realities of childcare businesses, and why investing in providers is an investment in families, workforce participation, and local economies.

In this episode of the Great Plains Archaeology Podcast, Carlton speaks with Phyllis Johnson and Erica Carmody about their recent open-access (no subscription required) Plains Anthropologist article, “Patriarchy Persists: Gender Inequities in Plains Anthropologist Publishing from 1954 to 2023.” Drawing on nearly seventy years of publication data, they examine persistent gender disparities in archaeological publishing, discuss why women's authorship rates have remained disproportionately low and, in some cases, declined since the early 1990s, and explore the structural factors that shape scholarly visibility and career advancement. The conversation considers what these patterns reveal about the history of Plains archaeology, how representation influences the production of archaeological knowledge, and what journals, institutions, and professional organizations can do to create a more equitable future for the discipline.

Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on February 21, 2021. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed. Two viruses, two vaccines, one unequal system: Guinean health officials declared an Ebola epidemic after reporting the first cases of the virus since West Africa’s deadly outbreak ended in 2016. One thing that has changed since that last outbreak: the availability of a vaccine. But like we have seen with the coronavirus pandemic, the existence of a vaccine does not necessarily mean access to one. In this episode: Nicolas Haque, Al Jazeera journalist Gladys Archange, Guinea country representative for Catholic Relief Services. Episode credits: This episode was updated by Marthe van der Wolf.

Link to Pre Order: Tackling Gender Bias in The Healthcare System. What Patient stories Teach Us About Implementing Systemic Change: https://www.waterstones.com/book/tackling-gender-bias-in-the-healthcare-system/louise-hockings-thompson/jinty-sheerin/9781805018810Our guest today is Neelam Heera-Shergill, founder and CEO of Cysters, a community-led charity with national reach working at the intersection of menstrual health, maternal care and mental well-being. When we talk about gender bias in healthcare, we're really talking about a system that has historically been designed for men. But what happens when you exist outside that narrow template in more ways than one? Neelam knows that story intimately, and has built something extraordinary in response to it. Rooted in grassroots activism and collective liberation, Cysters exists to challenge the stigma, systemic barriers and cultural silence that prevents so many people particularly those from ethnically diverse communities from getting the care they deserve. Neelam's work spans advocacy, creative storytelling, policy influence and community building, all driven by a simple but radical belief: that menstrual and maternal care should never be a privilege. In this conversation we explore: · How Cysters began with one voice and one lived experience and the moment Neelam knew she had to turn it into something bigger. · Why the framing of ethnically diverse communities as "hard to reach" says far more about the system than the community and what Cysters' evidence actually shows. · The real problem at the heart of healthcare inequity: "a lack of listening, referring, believing." · Through our research for our book, we found that women from deprived areas and marginalised communities are doubly disadvantaged when it comes to healthcare and whether Neelam's findings reflect the same. · The specific conditions endometriosis, PMOS, miscarriage, menopause where the intersection of gender and ethnicity creates particularly stark gaps in care. · How Cysters holds space for communities where menstruation carries cultural silence or shame, while still challenging it. · The ways Cysters has influenced real research and policy, and how a community of voices is making a tangible difference. · What a genuinely equitable reproductive healthcare system would look like and the two or three things that would need to change first. · Why "radical love and care" sits at the centre of Cysters' work, and why that language matters in a world of policy documents and research reports.We also catch up on our adventurous week hiking with Ramble Worldwide and Ageism is Never In Style in the Lake District with a wonderful group of like-minded women and we chat about why pre-orders for books truly matter (did you know we've got a book coming out in September?)Stick around for some beautiful inspiration to carry you through the week. ☕ SUBSCRIBE for honest chats on women's health, feminist issues, sisterhood & smashing the patriarchy, one cuppa at a time.

What to listen for:Our hosts, Robin Greubel and Stacy Barnett, sit down with canine cognition researcher Dr. Jennifer Essler. She unpacks her journey from coding Capuchin monkey videos in a windowless lab to studying fairness in wolves and dogs.Starting with music studies before discovering comparative psychology, Essler's academic trajectory took her from Georgia State's primate labs to hand-raised wolf packs in Vienna's Wolf Science Center.It's a unique research environment that controls for lifestyle differences between wolves and dogs by raising both species identically in packs. As a result, you can isolate domestication effects from environmental variables. The wolves, however, proved far more challenging subjects than primates, requiring complete experimental apparatus redesigns after initial safety failures.Her inequity aversion research uncovered pretty interesting species differences: wolves, like primates, showed quality sensitivity by refusing to work when partners received superior rewards.Dogs, conversely, accepted any reward as long as they received something, possibly reflecting their domestication-driven tolerance for human-directed work, or their reduced attention to partner outcomes.Robin, Stacy, and Dr. Essler discuss the practical implications this finding has for multi-dog training scenarios and reinforcement strategies.Essler's transition to Penn Vet Working Dog Center brought her expertise to practical applications: ovarian cancer detection, COVID-19 screening, and spotted lanternfly detection. All while developing behavioral assessment batteries. Key Topics:Academic Journey from Primates to Canines (03:04)Wolf Science Center Research Design (05:45)Pack Living Challenges: Dogs vs. Wolves (08:12)Impossible Task Apparatus and Behavioral Flexibility (16:14)SUNY Cobleskill Teaching and Detection Class (19:33)Glow Germ Contamination Training Exercise (27:13)3D Printed Vessels and Odor Considerations (31:18)Inequity Aversion: Dogs vs. Wolves vs. Primates (41:39) Resources:Dr. Essler's WebsiteSUNY Cobleskill Canine Science Program We want to hear from you:Check out the K9 Detection Collaborative FB page and comment on the episode post!K9Sensus Detection Dog Trainer AcademyK9Sensus Foundation can be found on Facebook and Instagram.

In This Episode What if someone told you you've been underpaid by more than two million dollars across your career? In this episode, Jason Henrichs speaks with fintech entrepreneur Tom Sosnoff. You may know Tom from founding thinkorswim and tastytrade, two billion-dollar exits that transformed retail investing. His newest venture, Lossdog, launching this month, focuses onsalary transparency. Traditional compensation platforms rely on legacy salary benchmarks and anonymous, unverified self-reports that create wide ranges. Lossdog's approach to compensation data is one that uses AI and verified data sources to deliver personalized valuations rather than vague, crowdsourced ranges. Think of it as whole-person valuation meets Machine Learning -- a worth engine combined with AI onboarding surfacing overlooked value in resumes, including skills, certifications, pivots, and even career gaps. It's all about fair value and knowing your worth! Lossdog aims to give individuals institutional-grade tools to negotiate salary on equal footing with employers by generating accurate compensation valuations.

In this episode, we dive deep into the unseen labor that women, especially women of color, navigate daily—whether it's managing societal expectations around beauty, facing structural inequities in the workplace, or advocating for change in a world resistant to it. From colorism and the “hot girl tax” to pay transparency, unionization, and the power of community, our guest shares candid insights and personal experiences to illuminate both challenges and actionable solutions.

"That's not fair!" Every kid knows this phrase instinctively. Someone else got more candy. Someone else is getting to play. Or worse yet: I studied hard to get an A on the test, but the teacher gifted everyone an A?! If kids were adults, they'd probably start dropping buzzwords like: 'Inequity! Injustice! Travesty! Who is the tyrant who would perpetuate such an outrage?' Enter the parable of the laborers in the vineyard. Jesus tells a story where a landowner hires folks at varying times during a day, but - at the end of the day - everyone gets the same pay. You can envision the lawsuits. Yet Jesus sees no injustice and instead says "I paid you what we agreed; do you resent my generosity?" Why does this aggravate us so much? If God is a God of justice (and he is), what is he revealing about our hearts and his? What lens gives him joy where we see only bitterness? Let's talk about "No Fair!" (Matthew 19:30-20:16).

So much depends on your ZIP code, even children's access to play. But an effort is growing to ensure the playground is where all kids can have fun, learn and heal.“It's where they learn, it's where they build connection, it's where they really establish their identity as a human being in this world,” says Lysa Ratliff, CEO for KABOOM! “And yet, there's extreme disparities in our parks and our schools and our cities and who has access to what.”In this sponsored episode, Ratliff explains how KABOOM! is working in cities such as Baltimore, Oakland and Uvalde in Texas to safeguard a generation's childhood and sense of belonging.KABOOM! is a national nonprofit organization known for building thousands of playgrounds over the past 30 years. Today, the organization is scaling up through its “25 in 5 Initiative” — a plan to partner with 25 cities over five years to end playspace inequity and close the “nature gap” that leaves millions of kids, especially in communities of color, without access to safe, quality green spaces.Ratliff highlights how data, partnerships and community-led design can end inequity.“We're trying to answer a very big question,” says Ratliff. “How can we make sure that every single kid in this country has a chance to grow up in a world that sees them, that values them, that gives them a sense of freedom and belonging and ultimately protects their childhood by any means?”Municipal partners interested in joining the 25 in 5 Initiative can complete an interest survey.

Welcome to Argent's first-ever live Work Friends episode, recorded earlier this month at the Tech Futures Summit in New York. Sali was joined on stage by New York Liberty Forward Breanna Stewart and Executive Vice President of Talent and The Collective at Wasserman, Lindsay Kagawa Colas. Lindsay manages an incredible roster of star athletes, including Stewie.Right in the thick of the WNBA's new collective-bargaining agreement, Stewie and Lindsay opened up about the inequitable playing field that exists and what they hope to see from the league going forward. And, in true Work Friends fashion, we get into their backstories, too. This is a conversation not to be missed, including:Stewie's reaction to her Unrivaled co-founder, Napheesa Collier's comments on WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert.how Lindsay negotiated the first-ever Inclusion Rider into an athlete's contract.why the Unrivaled league is so necessary for women basketball players, who typically play overseas in the off-season.how fans can support the WNBA in their fight for equitable pay, and so much more.Both Stewie and Lindsay's work sparks attention and societal change—they are cultural conversion starters and actively work to push the status quo. I'm honored to have them both join me today to speak more about their work on and off the court.On Sali: Argent Cowl Neck Blouse and Straight Leg TrouserOn Stewie: Argent Peak Lapel Blazer and Wide Leg TrouserOn Lindsay: Argent Chelsea Blazer, Waistcoat, and Straight Pintuck TrouserWork Friends CreditsHosted by Sali Christeson @salichristesonProduced by Gina Marinelli @ginaalilbitEdited by Ryan WoldoffTheme Song by Karina DePiano @sheplaysdepiano & Melanie Nyema @melanienyemaRecorded Live at the 2025 Tech Futures SummitWork Friends is produced by ARGENT (www.argentwork.com), a women's clothing label on a mission to redefine workwear and drive forward women's progress.

AI training apps aren't fringe anymore—they're steering runners into races, shaping programs, and shifting the coach–athlete relationship. In this conversation, Rob, Sharon, and Dan get honest about where AI helps, where it harms, and how real coaching fills the gaps. From Strava's social pull to training plans that ramp too fast, we unpack who thrives with AI, who gets left behind, and how to blend tech with human nuance without losing the “care” that keeps athletes healthy and progressing.In this episode:The draw of AI tools: convenience, community, and decision-fatigue reliefHidden downsides: comparison traps, overreaching, and context-blind pacesWhy beginners often need humans more than algorithmsRPE vs pace, hills and elevation, HRV/sleep, and the data AI ignoresAccountability: push notifications vs a coach who actually checks inEquity & nuance: female athletes, older runners, youth, neurodiversity, and medical historyA practical middle ground: using AI plans with human touchpoints

83,000 Americans die needlessly every year due to health inequity and systemic racism in healthcare. Dr. George Rust has spent 40 years fighting health disparities in America's most underserved communities, from migrant farmworker clinics in rural Florida to leading public health initiatives during the COVID-19 pandemic.In this powerful conversation, Dr. Rust reveals the structural inequities, racial health gaps, and preventable suffering he's witnessed throughout his career in medicine and public health. He shares hard-won lessons about earning trust in marginalized communities, navigating cultural competency challenges, and building coalitions for systemic change in American healthcare.THE REAL COST OF HEALTH INEQUITY: Research shows that eliminating the Black-white gap in health outcomes would save 83,000 lives annually. In Atlanta alone, closing premature death rates between Black and white populations would restore 43,000 person-years of life every year to Black communities. These aren't just statistics—they represent grandmother-years, wisdom-years, and family-years lost to needless suffering caused by barriers to healthcare access, discrimination in medicine, and social determinants of health.KEY TOPICS IN THIS EPISODE:Why health disparities persist in American healthcare and how systemic racism drives preventable deathsThe concept of "trust adjacency" and how healthcare providers earn trust in communities of colorWhat 40 years serving underserved populations taught one doctor about cultural humility and respect in medicineHow COVID-19 exposed America's public health vulnerabilities and political interference in scienceThe difference between "me all vs. we all" – individual autonomy versus community responsibility in public healthReal stories of needless suffering: from the $500 hand surgery barrier to cervical cancer from lack of pap smearsLessons from Morehouse School of Medicine, Dr. David Satcher, and Dr. Louis Sullivan on health justiceWhy respect matters more than you think in clinical settings and the "Lou Sullivan name tag" storyThe Tallahassee measles case and what happens when ideology trumps evidence-based medicineHow to avoid physician burnout while fighting for social justice and health equityBuilding coalitions and community partnerships for sustainable systemic changeABOUT DR. GEORGE RUST: Dr. Rust is a public health physician and professor at Florida State University with over 40 years of experience in community health, health policy, and medical education. His career spans Cook County Hospital in Chicago, the Farmworker Health Association in rural Florida, and 25 years at Morehouse School of Medicine, where he worked alongside public health legends Dr. David Satcher (former U.S. Surgeon General) and Dr. Louis Sullivan (founding president of Morehouse School of Medicine and former Secretary of Health and Human Services).His new book, "Healing in a Changing America: Doctoring a Nation of Needless Suffering" (Johns Hopkins University Press), examines how America's healthcare system creates preventable suffering through structural inequities, racial discrimination, and barriers to healthcare access. The book offers a roadmap for achieving health justice and eliminating health disparities across race, class, and geography.WHY THIS MATTERS NOW: America is undergoing demographic transformation into a multicultural, pluralistic democracy, yet health inequities continue to widen. With political polarization affecting public health policy, attacks on diversity initiatives in medical education, and ongoing debates about vaccine mandates, quarantine protocols, and government intervention in healthcare, this conversation offers critical insights for healthcare professionals, policy makers, community organizers, and anyone committed to social justice.Dr. Rust shares practical strategies for cross-cultural healthcare delivery, building trust with patients from different backgrounds, working within broken systems while advocating for reform, and maintaining resilience as a health equity advocate. His perspective combines clinical experience, public health expertise, academic leadership, and lived experience navigating racism in medicine as a white ally working in predominantly Black and Latino communities.QUOTABLE MOMENTS: "You don't come into communities carrying trust with you. You have to earn it." "83,000 lives could be saved annually just by eliminating the Black-white health gap." "It's what Fitzhugh Mullen called tin cup medicine: 'Now please sir, may I have some healthcare?'" "Would you rather deal with having somebody not go to work for two weeks, or would you rather be explaining to the public why you let a measles outbreak happen?"CONNECT WITH DR.

Dean Dayna Bowen Matthew, legal scholar, author, and Dean of The George Washington University Law School, delivers a compelling examination of how bias, both implicit and structural, continues to shape health outcomes in America. Drawing on decades of work at the intersection of civil rights and healthcare, she explains how inequities in housing, education, and employment are compounded by biases in medical decision-making, access, and policy enforcement.From the legacy of redlining to the subtle ways patient care can be influenced by race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, Dean Matthew makes the case that health equity cannot be achieved without confronting bias head-on. This episode is a call to action for healthcare providers, policymakers, and community leaders to recognize their role in dismantling these barriers and to commit to systemic change. As our Season 3 opener, it sets the tone for a series dedicated to breaking down inequity at its roots.-AT L.A.S.T.Website: WeAreATLast.orgEmail: adam.cady@weareatlast.orgSupport: https://secure.givelively.org/donate/athletic-trainers-leveraging-activism-for-social-transformationLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/at-l-a-s-tInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/atlastpod35% OFF Thorne Products compliments of http://raincrosshp.com/ go to https://thor.ne/Ch2Uc20% OFF Xcelerated Recovery products: Code Rain20: https://xrscience.org/-Artwork by Jason Eisenberg Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dots_and_squares/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasoneisenberg00/-Music by Willie B the Ichiban DonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ichibandon/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/william-brown-25945b168/-Production / Engineering / Editing / by Gerson SandovalWebsite: www.davyrover.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/davy.rover/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gersonsandovalengineer/Music Credits: Davy Rover, West Coast Bop-GuestWebsite: https://www.law.gwu.edu/dayna-bowen-matthewLinkedIn:

If you've listened to this show for any length of time, and most likely even if you haven't, you know the US legal system all too often fails domestic abuse survivors, especially women, children, and adolescents. My guest, Professor Dale Margolin Cecka, knows it all too well. Professor Cecka is an advocate for women, children, and teens who have survived domestic abuse. Not only that, but she's also a law professor, former Superior Court senior staff attorney, former Assistant Attorney General of Georgia, and the Director of Albany Law School's Family Violence Litigation Clinic.For this episode, I talked with Professor Cecka about her experience and expertise, and many related topics.

On this episode of Infill, YIMBY Action's Marketing Manager Mariah Redfern sits down with artist, activist, and educator Mark Harris to explore the history of redevelopment in San Francisco's Fillmore District and how systemic displacement continues to impact Black communities today. Mark shares his personal journey from corporate life to art and activism, and how his work with the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project uncovered the erasure of what was once the “Harlem of the West.” Together, they unpack the legacy of urban renewal, zoning as a tool of modern segregation, and the need to diversify the pro-housing movement. Tune in to hear a deep dive into how history shapes the present—and why building a future of abundant housing requires as many voices, especially different kinds of voices, as possible. Check out Mark's work with the AEMP: https://antievictionmap.com/dislocationblack-exodusFind more of Mark's work: https://www.artofmarkharris.com/Learn more about YIMBY Action: https://yimbyaction.org/join/Follow YIMBY Action on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yimbyaction/Follow YIMBY Action on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/yimbyaction.bsky.socialFollow YIMBY Action on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/yimbyaction/
