Migration, Ethnicity, Race and Health Group Colloquium Speaker: Sharrelle Barber, PhD, assistant research professor in the department of Epidemiology & Biostatistics at the Dornsife School of Public Health
Barber will discuss how residential segregation, as a structural form of racism, is linked to deleterious exposures that undermine health and well-being of communities using data from the 2010 Brazilian IBGE Census and the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brazil). The talk will have a special focus on women, State violence and Brazil’s socio-political context.
