For frameworks, I picked \u2018Jails make people sick\u2019 by Zoe Saldana. The issue this excerpt address is that of the unpreparedness and lack of healthy living conditions in the U.S. prison system amidst this pandemic. She points out that while infectious diseases rapidly circulate through prisons, the people in charge are very unprepared and don\u2019t do much to address the problem. I picked this because this issue isn\u2019t exclusive to coronavirus, overall the prison systems in the U.S. are very broken and are often not at all concerned about the wellbeing of the inmates.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For stories, I picked \u2018Tired\u2019 by Alice Tsui. She writes about how common anti-Asian sentiments have become during this pandemic. There has been a huge increase in slurs and verbal attacks against Asian American\u2019s because they are seen to have some sort of association with coronavirus. She cites various instances of people making nasty comments in public at anybody who \u2018looks\u2019 asian. The notion that Asians are more likely to have covid simply because of the way they look is obviously absolutely asinine. It\u2019s really terrible that anybody has to experience this kind of treatment in the 21st century. I picked this story because I myself have witnessed stuff like this happen in public.<\/span><\/p>\n

For resources, I picked \u2018Wash your hands\u2019 by Malaka Ghairab. It\u2019s basically just a guide with 3 things that everybody should be doing to slow the spread of coronavirus. Wash your hands, sneeze into your elbow, don\u2019t touch your face. (these are rules everybody should be following anyway just for general hygiene. We shouldn\u2019t need a pandemic in order for people to wash their hands.) I picked this because these are literally the simplest and easiest things everybody should be doing to slow the spread of covid or any other contagious virus. Also it is presented as a comic which is a cool and creative way to present information. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
