HEALTHY FOOD

The Racism in Our Food System Hurts BIPOC Health

October 19, 2020 - by [email protected]_84

Food—and easy access to it—is a universal right. That’s a statement we should all agree on, yet the distribution of safe and affordable food is far from equitable in the United States. Black, brown, and Indigenous communities have been subject to redlining—a practice that denied housing loans to people of color and caused grocery chains to pull out of urban areas—and other racist policies for decades, and as a result have disproportionately less access to full-service grocery stores, well-funded neighborhoods, and schools. These truths are not new. In fact, the entire U.S. food system was founded on systemic racism—and that legacy impacts the well-being of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and people of color) communities to this day.

Working out at the gym, an indoor space where people are heavily breathing, probably doesn’t sound ideal to many of us right now. But this week, news of an outbreak confirmed that gyms are one of the most dangerous places you could be amid the coronavirus pandemic. The outbreak of infections in question happened in Canada from a single spin studio, which ultimately got 70 people sick. With many former gym-goers canceling memberships out of concern for their health, wellness studios nationwide have had to close their doors. And now, another one is biting the dust. The beloved yoga studio chain YogaWorks will close all of its locations after 33 years in business. The California-based chain with 66 studios throughout the United States has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and is permanently closing all of its studios, according to an Oct. 15 report in The Wall Street Journal.
