Wellness That Matters: Black Health News & Community Care The government shutdown is more than a budget fight. At its core, the stalemate is about how to fund critical services that people rely on for health and safety. And nowhere are the stakes higher than in Georgia. Essential Benefits in Jeopardy Programs like WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) provide nutritional support to more than 190,000 Georgians.

Clips on social media show that on planes, cabin crew have resting quarters tucked away from passenger cabins. Airline workers have an onboard resting area where they can fully lie down, take a nap, rest, and have…
Global Black Voices: News from around the World By Sir Ronald Sanders In my article last week, “Hunger and War: The Oldest Crime the World Still Permits,” I argued that global hunger is not caused by a lack of food but by political decisions that produce war, destroy livelihoods, and block humanitarian access. That view is echoed by the United Nations: a recent briefing on food insecurity, drawing on World Food Programme (WFP) analysis, noted that ending hunger by 2030 would cost about USD 93 billion a year, while governments have spent USD 21.9 trillion on their militaries over the…
