To Bridge Health Equity and Infrastructure, We Must Harness the Power and Creativity of the Crowd – Nonprofit News

Throughout its history, the United States has implemented federal infrastructure projects that have benefited certain communities while destroying others. During the colonial era, much of the nation’s early infrastructure facilitated trade and commerce for colonists, but it also exploited indigenous civilizations. The $ 36 million Transcontinental Railroad project, started in the 1860s, displaced millions of indigenous peoples and destroyed their holy land. A century later, in the 1950s, the Interstate Highway System created an efficient mode of travel for some communities, but it also divided and destroyed other communities and exacerbated spatial segregation.1 At its core, the nation’s infrastructure projectsRead News

Opinion: Why Rosa DeLauro’s proposal for a food safety agency is so important
