We've heard and read a lot about #inequality and #inequity. Consider #insecurity, a much broader concept, and then "manufactured insecurity," which of course just make things worse.

At what point do we do something about that?

So the teachers are being instructed to run classes with the windows open. Perhaps not coincidentally my son has had a cough now for 4 weeks.
But you'll be pleased to know that at St Cuthberts they are breathing a higher class of air.

🗣️If you are applauding the decision on affirmative action then you are denying the existence of structural inequities.
✅ You can be part of the solution.

“#Income is not a good #proxy, alone, for #race,” said Polonik.
Additionally, researchers found that #pollution from #powerplants and #transportation are particularly important in perpetuating #airquality #inequity. When these types of pollution are targeted, it can reduce imbalances.
