SUMMARY:Sanyu Mojola - Race\, Health\, and Inequality: Producing an HIV Epidemic in the Shadow of the Capitol
DESCRIPTION:Room C03\, Columbia University School of Social Work \nSpeaker: Sanyu Mojola\, Associate Professor of Sociology\, University of Colorado\, Boulder \nIn 2009\, the capitol had one of the nation’s worst epidemics; 3.2% of residents were HIV positive\, and African Americans were disproportionately affected. In this seminar\, Dr. Mojola will demonstrate how classic social structural processes—such as migration\, racial residential segregation\, concentrated poverty\, the illegal drug trade\, the associated legislative War on Drugs\, and mass incarceration—interacted to produce an HIV risk environment in D.C. Dr. Mojola also illustrates how these processes shaped individual HIV acquisition and transmission. The session will conclude with a discussion of the broader applicability of Dr. Mojola’s findings to understanding the social structural production of disease vulnerability and the persistence of racial health disparities in the U.S. \nThis seminar is organized by the Columbia Population Research Center at the Columbia University School of Social Work. Videoconference is available at Mailman School of Public Health\, 722 West 168th Street\, Room 492. For more information\, please visit: http://cupop.columbia.edu/events/seminar-series/cprc-seminars. \nThe Columbia Population Research Center (CPRC) is a multidisciplinary community of scholars unified by a commitment to research that addresses the health and wellbeing of vulnerable populations in the context of local and global inequalities and that informs policies affecting those populations. CPRC promotes research in four primary areas: children\, youth\, and families; gender\, sexuality\, health and HIV; immigration/migration; and urbanism. \nRegistration is required: https://cupop.formstack.com/forms/rsvp_cprc \nLunch will be provided for those who RSVP to attend at the School of Social Work.
