New book explains the public health costs of prisons and policing
Assistant Professor of Latin American and Latino studies Carlos Martinez is a medical anthropologist, whose work often focuses on the health consequences of policing, incarceration, and deportation. His latest co-edited book, "All This Safety Is Killing Us: Health Justice Beyond Prisons, Police, and Borders," explores the public health impacts of punitive policies that disproportionately impact Black and brown people, trans and queer people, people with disabilities, people with mental health diagnoses, people with substance use disorders, and survivors of trauma and abuse.
