Obasogie believes that race impact assessments can address some of the dangers posed by the persistence of regressive understandings of race.\nObasogie and Darnovsky, eds., Beyond Bioethics: Toward a New Biopolitics UC Press, 2018\nOgletree, Jr., and Sarat, eds., Racial Reconciliation and the Healing of a Nation NYU Press, 2017\n\xa0\nThe post Race and Ideology in Science and Medicine appeared first on KPFA.
