Health is Wealth pt 2

This week we finish up our series on equity talking about health, food and activity. We open with the mental and how stress is induced by racism (19:00) and what stress actually does to the body on a biochemical level (25:30). We move into the physical and how food and alcohol has been used as a weapon (29:00) and Donald shares a disturbing form of jail punishment (36:16). This leads us into how all grocery stores do not matter (42:23) and food desserts. We wrap this episode with Savannah’s power walking (1:02:40) and a closing message from Donald (1:12:15)

About the Podcast

The Black Codes
In an attempt to understand what the hell is going on in America, Savannah and Donald (two self proclaimed N*ggas With Attitudes and degrees) embark on a quest to connect the dots between past and present. Through research, data and shade, The Black Codes aims to look at the present state of America through an often overlooked lens, her actual/factual relationship with her Black citizens. Join us every Thursday as we uncover the many ties and lies that bind America’s past & present.
