I will start with colleague and brilliant Black scholar Dr. Sewell @aasewell journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/23… /2

Would be remiss if I didn’t mention Dr. Gilbert Gee who conducted early work on redlining in Cali that inspired some of my own work that lead to these 3: (2011) journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/00… /3

(2012) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100… /4

(2014) pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24134165/ /5

And other work related to pregnancy by group in Chicago pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31450078/ /6

Gee in California on redlining and health among Chinese communities: (2002) ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P… /7
