UROC Research Agenda awardee and nationally recognized community-engaged scholar Rachel Hardeman is leading a major research project titled Multidimensional Measures of Structural Racism. The project explores the measurement of the impact of structural racism in urban communities and documents the ways that Black communities have been and are currently systemically disenfranchised. In particular, structural racism disadvantages Black birthing people before, during, and after pregnancy, leading to heartbreaking health inequities for them and their babies.
