Declaring racism a public health crisis
The Risks of Renting on the Margins: Housing Informality and State Legibility in the Covid-19 Pandemic
Welfare programs place burdens on citizens to document their vulnerability through means-tested regulations in the United States, but theories of the welfare state do not necessarily account for mismatches between residents' eligibility and their legibility to state infrastructure. Focusing on housing instability during the COVID-19 pandemic, we explain how Chicago residents who were eligible for emergency rental assistance programs (ERAPs) were …
Stewardship: The political ecologies of parks, rewilding, and reform in the United States
Rewilding projects that reintroduce "wild" vegetation to parks and green spaces have become increasingly common in the United States, from wetland areas in city parks to designated nature preserves. Among the experts and volunteers who do this work, rewilding is often referred to as stewardship: care for the environment focused on long-term sustainability and quality of life rather than ownership. Stewardship is thus distinguished from market-dri…
Greenwork: The Devaluation of Labor When Caring for Nature
Urban greening initiatives frequently promise to support economic growth and to improve environmental conditions for communities with ecological science. Despite these lofty goals, much of the labor required to carry out the quotidian, mundane work of cultivating and maintaining urban nature is provided by unpaid volunteers or low-wage landscapers. Drawing on ethnographic research and 50 in-depth interviews with experts and volunteers who manage …
Data citizenship: Quantifying structural racism in Covid-19 and beyond
Data-driven public health policies were widely implemented to mitigate the uneven impact of COVID-19. In the United States, evidence-based interventions are often employed in "racial equity" initiatives to provide calculable representations of racial disparities. However, disparities in working or living conditions, germane to public health but outside the conventional scope of epidemiology, are seldom measured or addressed. What is the effect of…
Finding natural variation: Assembling underdetermined evidence of gender dysphoria, doing trans therapeutics
Disease surveillance infrastructure and the economisation of public health
The city government of Chicago adopted a 'racial equity' approach to tackle racial disparities in COVID-19 outcomes. Drawing on experience addressing core vulnerabilities associated with HIV risk, Chicago public health experts who designed COVID-19 mitigation initiatives recognised that the same social determinants of health drive racial disparities for both HIV and COVID-19. Yet, when building an infrastructure to respond to COVID-19, disease su…
