“…Looking at anti-Black racism in Latin America through a transnational rubric, Busey and Coleman-King (2020) offer a Black diaspora rescripting of critical race theory to address antiblack racism work in educational research. They call for a critical view of #BlackLivesMatter in Afro-Latin American contexts that acknowledges the long history of Afro-Latin American activism preceding the contemporary #BlackLivesMatter moment.…”

“…They call for a critical view of #BlackLivesMatter in Afro-Latin American contexts that acknowledges the long history of Afro-Latin American activism preceding the contemporary #BlackLivesMatter moment. These authors advocate for a truly transnational invocation of and approach to #BlackLivesMatter, that is, “capable of interrogating racist structures of coloniality, modernity, and White supremacy that operate globally to suppress Black humanity and humanness in general” (Busey & Coleman-King, 2020, p. 4). This framing is also far more transnational and expansive by definition.…”

This article is based on a content analysis of eight digital news reports published between June 2020 and March 2021 that link anti-Blackness in South Asia to the concerns of #BlackLivesMatter following George Floyd’s murder and the heightened global attention to issues of anti-Black racism against African Americans. In this study, I ask the following questions regarding these news reports: (1) How do these accounts present Afrodiasporic communities in South Asia relative to the concerns of #BlackLivesMatter? (2) What kind of impact does the use of #BlackLivesMatter to bring attention to South Asia’s racism have on Siddis, Sheedis, and Ceylon African communities? This paper contributes additional interpretive and analytical material to scholarship on racialization in South Asian societies, political intimacies between Afrodiasporic communities in geographically disparate parts of the world, and the need for cultural validity in journalistic accounts engendering #BlackLivesMatter to legitimate the connective tissue of this global Black political movement.

“…Some scholars argue that as discourses of equity, inclusion, and diversity abound in the United States and other Western countries trying to grapple with their racist histories and current demographic shifts, there is a strain against the dark (Busey & Coleman-King, 2020; Sexton, 2008; Wilderson, 2010). In this social and political contexts, Black youth, families, and communities struggle to make sense of what are widely regarded in Black cultural spaces as cases of (anti-)Black suffering and death are on the rise (Dumas, 2016).…”

Anti-Black racism and White supremacy continue to have dire impact on the lives and educational outcomes of Black people and students in educational spaces. Examining ways in which this form of racism is disrupted, confronted, and challenged in education and schooling is important not only to Black students, scholars, practitioners, and staff, but to all People of Color. Drawing on research conducted with educators in, Canada, the United States and our lived experiences as Black educators this article examines how antiblackness and anti-Black racism is manifested in schooling spaces through teaching, learning, and leadership, and offers actions that educators can take in everyday practice to confront and disrupt. In so doing connect theory to practice, and offer possibilities that school leaders and others can act on.

“…Excise taxes on sweetened beverages are one policy approach to decrease consumption of added sugars . Numerous countries and 8 US cities have implemented sweetened beverage taxes . The largest of these cities is Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which implemented a per-ounce tax of $0.015 on sugar-sweetened and artificially sweetened beverages on January 1, 2017 (all other US cities with beverage taxes tax only sugar-sweetened beverages).…”

IMPORTANCESweetened beverage taxes are one policy approach to reduce intake of added sugars. Soda is the leading source of added sugars in the US diet, but few studies have examined how such taxes influence sweetened beverage intake in youth.OBJECTIVE To estimate the association between the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, beverage tax and adolescent soda intake. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTSThis economic evaluation of school district-level Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System data from September 2013 to December 2019 compared weekly soda intake in high school students in Philadelphia, a city with a sweetened beverage tax, with that in 7 comparison cities without beverage taxes. Difference-in-differences regression modeling was used to estimate change in soda intake in Philadelphia compared with control cities. Secondary analyses compared 100% juice and milk intake to explore potential substitution associations. Subgroup analyses evaluated differences by race and ethnicity and weight status (obesity and overweight or obesity). Analyses were performed between August 20 and October 20, 2020. School districts that had weighted data and a survey question on weekly soda intake from 2013 to 2019 were included. The study included high school students, grades 9 to 12, in school districts participating in the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System from 2013 to 2019.EXPOSURES Implementation of a sweetened beverage tax in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in January 2017. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURESReported weekly servings of soda, 100% juice, and milk.RESULTS A total of 86 928 participants (weighted mean [SD] age, 15.8 [1.3] years; 49% female) from 8 US cities (including Philadelphia) were included. Before the tax, adolescents in the 7 comparison cities had a mean intake of 4 servings of soda per week compared with 5.4 servings per week in Philadelphia. Philadelphia's tax was associated with a reduction of 0.81 servings of soda per week (95% CI, −1.48 to −0.14 servings; P = .02) 2 years after tax implementation. There was no significant difference in 100% juice or milk intake, although Philadelphia adolescents consumed more juice than those in nontaxed cities. In subgroup analyses, the tax was associated with a reduction of 1.13 servings per week in Hispanic/Latinx adolescents (95% CI, −2.04 to −0.23 servings; P = .01) and 1.2 servings per week in adolescents with obesity (95% CI, −2.33 to −0.13 servings; P = .03). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCEThis economic evaluation found that a sweetened beverage tax was associated with a reduction in soda intake among adolescents, providing evidence that such taxes can improve dietary behaviors.
