"And research points to systemic racism as the major, underlying cause." "“Racial and ethnic sleep disparities can be considered the consequence of preventable structural and institutional, personally experienced, and internalized racism,” Dr. Jackson says was a bottom line point of the report."
I'm not saying that much of it doesn't make sense--the tie between sleep and health, for example--but don't you get tired of that same old boogeyman ("systemic racism") getting trotted out as the "major, underlying" cause of all the ills of "the marginalized"?
I’m tired of race-bigots lying to me.
…uninterrupted sleep.
Shaking my head at the abject stupid in this research
Gorebal Warning is the root cause.
Give them all EVs.
Problem SOLVED!
Is there anything that “systemic racism” can’t do?
Neighbors making noise, loud music, hanging out on the street in the small hours, loudly, can’t ask anyone to turn it down because then you’ll have trouble with them....black neighbors in a black neighborhood. How is that racism?
Obesity and apnea, crowded dwellings because of poverty, I don’t buy the case for racism, but at least I can see it.
Not the noise.
So that’s why they went all FBI on the 7-11. They couldn’t sleep. And it’s whitey’s fault.
Well, I’m not going to lose any sleep over it.
feh...
Does it ever occur to some people that correlation is not causation.
It’s not lack of sleep that causes the problems, but likely, the problems causing the sleep problems.
My boss and I were on a business trip. At breakfast I told him I had slept unusually good, like the way I imagine an innocent man sleeps.
Just shook his head and didn’t ask any further questions...
…research points to systemic racism as the major, underlying cause.
To which I say, humor me with specifics.
Now sleep is racist? What a load of 💩
It would be a lot easier if they would just tell us what’s not racist.
another excuse for acting like wild animals?
They had has much choice being born with their skin as I did with mine
Only racists seem to be hung up about it and need to get a life
So.... The next major legislative push will be equity in sleeping. Sleep More Better (modeled after Build Back Better) will involve hiring 2 x 87,000 (the new IRS hires) to monitor and WAKE UP any honky sleeping beyond his allotment. To Each According to Their Sleep Number, Wake Each According to Their Sleep Allotment. Any and all afternoon nap minutes will be deducted from their overall nighttime total. Repeat offenders will be placed on the Tear Down This Wall squad (dismantling Trump’s southern border wall) and not allowed to sleep until the wall is destroyed.
Invariably the reports of urban crime/murders include the time of the crime...”Shaniqua and Latrina were standing on the sidewalk at 3am when they were shot in a drive-by.”
Maybe don’t be out and about at 3am and you’ll get some sleep.
