In your the post, please address the following questions:
Part 1: Mechanisms of Inequity: How Mass Incarceration of Black Communities Impacts Health
Structural Mechanisms and Bias: What are the structural mechanisms (e.g., systemic biases) that lead to the mass incarceration of Black communities in the United States?
The Inequities of Systemic Racism: How do these factors impact health status (i.e., the health inequities) of Black communities?
Part 2: Ecological Perspectives: Barriers to Achieving Health Equity with Mass Incarceration of Black Communities
Organizational Level: What organizational policies (e.g., prisons, police departments, etc.) contribute to the mass incarceration of Black communities in the United States? Provide an example.
Community Level: Using the theoretical constructs of a health behavior theory at the community level, describe the challenges with achieving health equity for Black communities facing unjust incarceration rates.
Societal Level: Why is criminal justice reform challenging in the United States? Describe the barriers to achieving health equity at the societal level—using theoretical constructs of health behavior theories.
Part 3: Overcoming Barriers: Strategies for Addressing Structural Bias, Social Inequities, and Systemic Racism
Health in All Policies: How may CDC’s Health in All Policies (HiAP) framework address mass incarceration of Black communities?
Advocacy and Social Stratification: If a policy could immediately “fix” the mass incarceration of Black communities in the United States, why would it still be necessary to plan health advocacy efforts and/or support coalitions related to this issue? Try to form connections to Max Weber’s theory of social stratification (i.e., wealth, power, status).
