*many black and brown people live in impoverished areas, a lot of which are food deserts, and many of which are also polluted (lets not get into the history of that!) and thus have lingering/ underlying health issues that make them more susceptible to death, if they get it. We don't want to examine the structural and systemic bias that "corrals" them into these areas, then keeps them there either.
See below video for context about reallocation of urban funds to areas where black/ brown/ poor typically don't live. An angle most people don't even think about.
