Welcome to Unequal by Design, the latest series from the Morris Perspective Podcast, where host Connie Morris tackles the stark realities of geographic injustice. In this episode, 'Segregated by the System: Why Your Zip Code Still Predicts Your Life Expectancy', we delve into the uncomfortable truth that where you live can dictate how long you live. Unpacking a 13-year life expectancy gap across zip codes in the same city, this episode reveals the impact of systemic factors like redlining, environmental racism, and school funding disparities. Learn how strategic neglect shapes communities and discover ways to advocate for targeted investment and systemic change. Join us in reimagining a fair map where everyone's zip code offers equal opportunity for a healthy and prosperous life.
