Description

AJPH Editors Vickie Mays and Alfredo Morabia interview Tamara Rushovich (Harvard), lead author of "US Voting Rights Act Impact on Black and Black vs. White Infant Death Rates in Jim Crow States, 1959–1980 and 2017–2021" (Am J Public Health. 2024; 114(3): 300–308), and Jesse H. Rhodes (UMass Amherst). We discuss the definition of "Jim Crow Laws" and states, the public health effects of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, and its impact on infant mortality. We also explore whether current Supreme Court decisions are eroding voting rights and how to defend them.
Podcast producer: Troels Drasbech. Journal Assistant: Keira McCarthy.
