“The problem lies not with American workers, but with American jobs and American policy infrastructure...All jobs could be good jobs. But only policy makers and business leaders have the skills to make that happen, not workers.” https://t.co/T0OgKL6peN

🧵Study looked at disparities in use of physical restraints on patients who get “aggressive” in the ER at my training hospital, @YNHH. Black patients had greater adjusted odds of being restrained. I feel validated bc it’s something I “felt” as a MS3. 1/3 https://t.co/u5CqXGVp93

Apologies for the past are good & fine but @nardotrealtor is CURRENTLY bankrolling lawsuits to overturn eviction moratoriums and allow landlords to evict renters - mostly Black & Latino - during the pandemic. Actions speak louder than words.

...Trump clouds economic disparities, patently racist remarks, and regressive policy with macroeconomic statistics—many of which he should not take credit for. Trump’s policy decisions will more likely extract wealth from Black communities... https://t.co/CO1JJIolc0

[Prosperity Now @prosperitynow]

Unfortunately, much of the $634 billion spent through tax subsidies and #taxbreaks to help families purchase a home, attend college, and save and invest for the future largely goes to help wealthy, mostly White, households build more wealth.
