1) @MayaSchenwar and @LVikkiml new book "Prison By Any Other Name" is an invaluable read for those in health care who see the PIC's detrimental effects on patient wellbeing but are unsure of what "reform" efforts to speak out in favor of.

I was taking care of a patient the other day who was very seriously injured. And I stepped out to talk to his family briefly and give them an update. For context, he was Black. I told them what was going on quickly and asked if they had any questions. And this is what they said.

@PaulNWilliamz @liverprof Thank you for putting this together. As a PGY-1 working to be a real-life PCP in clinic this week, these tips are all spot on

Check out a figure from the article: Economic inequality drives health inequity. Policy that mediates that economic inequality by providing access to higher quality nutrition to children in poverty leads to improved health.

[Jack Pollack @jhpollack]

Improving the nutritional quality of the food we serve children lowers the risk of obesity. Duh, right? https://t.co/ov9lMDqeq8

you wanna get radicalized, be a lunch lady and get told you must throw away a child's hot meal and replace it with a barebones "meal" of white milk and cheese on white bread, all in front of their friends, b/c the child has "debt." and if you pay for it yourself, you're fired.
