Warning

In Warning: Driving May be Hazardous to Black Health political analyst Earl Ofari Hutchinson examines why many brand driving accidents a public health peril because they pose a greater danger to Blacks and minorities. He details the tortured history of the fight by traffic safety reform advocates and government agencies for greater traffic safety. He assesses the prime causes of the cyclical fall and rise in vehicle deaths. He intersperses his assessment of the post-pandemic driving death surge among Blacks with the case of Nicole Linton. She typifies many of the problems and challenges public, officials, local and national government agencies, law enforcement, and vehicle safety experts face in the ongoing battle to reduce vehicle deaths. Warning: Driving May be Hazardous to Black Health presents an eye-opening look at the mounting peril on the roads for Blacks, as well as Latinos, and Native Americans who also have a disproportionate death rate from vehicle accidents as well as many other Americans. It's more. It's also an urgent call for greater action
