There's a new push to acknowledge the greater impact of racism on health.Three Democratic lawmakers created the Anti-Racism and Public Health Act, which would create two new programs within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).One is a National Center for Anti-Racism to research health disparities and develop policies to close the divide. The other is a new program within the CDC’s Center for Injury Prevention and Control that would be focused on preventing law enforcement violence.The bill also calls on the federal government to declare racism a public health crisis. Meanwhile, many state and local governments have already done that.The American Public Health Association says federal action would identify racism as an issue of national importance.“I think the goal is to get us to take our heads of the sand and not be afraid to call racism for what it is,” said Dr. Georges Benjamin, Executive Director at the American Public Health Association.Benjamin says the pandemic has shown the extent of racism as a health issue, pointing to matters that prevent people of color from getting tested and the apprehension Black men face when it comes to putting on a mask, because it can be seen as threatening.He says the stress can raise blood pressure and cause health issues.“If you actually go in and understand their life experiences, they have higher degrees of stress,” said Benjamin. “Stress, it changes a whole range of bodily hormones that have negative impacts on the body.”The American Public Health Association declared systemic racism a public health crisis in June, shortly after George Floyd’s death.A U.S. Senate version of the bill has been referred to committee. 1708

TIJUANA, Mexico. (KGTV) -- The female passenger of the truck that plowed into a row of street vendors and vehicles waiting to cross the Mexican-U.S. border Monday afternoon says she and the driver were fleeing an attack before the chaotic scene broke out. Summer Draper, who was injured during the incident and is being treated at Scripps Mercy Hospital in Hillcrest, says she and her boyfriend were visiting Tijuana from Utah when the incident occurred.Draper tells 10News the couple went to Tijuana to shop when their truck was allegedly attacked while asking for directions. RELATED: Tijuana crash suspect drove on suspended license“If we would have stopped the car we would have been dead. We had to run from these people they were attacking us,” Draper said. Draper says the pair didn’t make it to the shops, but instead, tried to reroute to the Costco back by the border. That’s when she says they asked for help. “They said the only way they'd be able to help is if he drove.”Draper says her boyfriend Frank Stricker, 29, was driving and, while he was hesitant, gave in and let the man help. “Instead of going left to Costco he’s going right,” Draper said, adding that’s when her boyfriend started yelling for the man to pull over. “In two seconds the guy pulls over the car and there’s a cop.”Draper remembers hearing gunfire before she says Stricker hit the gas to get away. Minutes later, she says they reached the border, but while stopped in the lanes, they were attacked.

Draper says the couple were shot at and their tires slashed. Images from the scene show their truck stopped in a mangled mess while a few dozen people surround the vehicle. One video shows Stricker lying on top of a bloodied Draper outside the truck, seemingly to protect her from the crowd. After the crash, Draper was taken to the hospital where she claims to have been tortured. “They tortured, they laughed at me they had everyone taking pictures of me they seriously did all of this with no medicine I mean I felt everything,” she said. According to Draper, she spent the night at the hospital before being brought to the U.S. for further treatment. Stricker is currently in the custody of Mexican authorities and is facing attempted homicide charges. Videos and images from the incident show that Stricker also suffered injuries, his condition is unknown at this time.According to court documents from Utah, Stricker has drug charges extending back to 2008, including possession or use of a controlled substance, and use or possession of drug paraphernalia. Mexican law officials are continuing to investigate the incident and have not yet released details.Tijuana news station Televisa reported the truck struck over a dozen vehicles waiting to cross into the U.S. and ran down least four people, including one person who suffered severe injuries.RELATED: Truck with Utah plates strikes vendors, other cars at U.S.-Mexico borderPolice and fire crews closed down traffic at the border for about 20 minutes.

This week's mail bombs have spurred another reexamination of security practices at CNN and other major newsrooms.Even after Friday's arrest of a suspect in the bombing spree, journalists have been urged to stay vigilant and take threats seriously.Two of the packages found so far were sent to CNN's New York offices at Time Warner Center. Wednesday's package, addressed to former CIA director John Brennan, who actually works for NBC, arrived in the mailroom and forced an evacuation of the building.Friday's package, addressed to CNN contributor James Clapper, the former director of National Intelligence, was intercepted at a nearby post office.All mail destined for CNN's US offices is now being screened first at off-site facilities.This means the package to Clapper "would NOT have come directly to the TWC, even if it hadn't been intercepted first," CNN Worldwide president Jeff Zucker said in a Friday morning memo.Zucker held an informal town hall for New York employees on Thursday to share security updates and answer questions. When he thanked the company's security team, there was a long round of applause. "Thank you for an incredible job," Zucker said to the security personnel.Officials at other major media companies have been on a heightened state of alert.The security department at News Corp, which owns the Wall Street Journal and other newspapers, told staffers on Wednesday, "We are treating this situation with extra vigilance."There were scares at the Los Angeles Times and the San Diego Union-Tribune that day.But to date the only other media company that has received a mail bomb is Tribeca Enterprises, the home to Robert De Niro's production company in Lower Manhattan.Some of the security adjustments have been visible: Magnetometers have been installed at the entrances of the CNN Center in Atlanta, which is partially open to the public.But some of the efforts are purposefully hard to spot. And media companies generally try to say as little as possible about security."Ensuring the safety and security of our staff is of critical importance and we've taken steps to expand security measures given the current environment, but as a matter of policy, we won't discuss this in any more detail," The New York Times said in a statement.At the newspaper's headquarters, the NYPD recently installed concrete blocks along the sidewalk, a move that appears to be designed to protect the building from a vehicular attack.News executives and their security offices have decades of experience with belligerent customers, unstable viewers, and menacing readers who send threatening letters or show up at offices.Acts of violence are rare, though not unprecedented. Acts of harassment, stalking and violent threats are more common. Security staffs sometimes work with local and federal law enforcement on these cases.CNN on Friday publicly thanked the FBI, the Department of Justice, the NYPD, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the United States Postal Service for their "incredible work" in a tweet, underscoring the coordination it takes to defuse these kinds of dangers.Journalism advocacy groups say that these problems are on the rise, partly due to a steady stream of anti-media attacks by political leaders.In August, for example, a California man was arrested for allegedly calling the Boston Globe and threatening to kill employees. The paper had recently led a nationwide editorial-writing effort decrying President Trump's "enemy of the people" rhetoric. The man, who has pleaded not guilty, allegedly used that term in his phone calls.In some cases, violence against newsrooms has nothing to do with politics. The shooting spree at the Capital Gazette newspaper in Annapolis, Maryland on in June, which left five employees dead, happened after the suspect had a long-running feud with the paper.On Monday, a man tried to break into the offices of WTTG, the Fox-owned local station in Washington.The intruder kicked down the glass doors in the lobby and tried to enter further into the building. He was shot once in the chest by a security guard.The man was later hospitalized, and no one at the station was injured.The suspect "was known to both Fox executives and police, according to sources, and had leveled threats against both previously," according to WTTG's own story about the incident. It said that the man "has previously sent emails to employees of FOX 5" and "is suspected to have mental health issues."Every time there's a newsroom evacuation or worse, journalists react the same way: by covering the story thoroughly.WTTG began live coverage of the break-in right away. CNN used the Skype app and cell phone connections to broadcast live during the evacuation. And the survivors of the The Capital Gazette set up a temporary newsroom after the attack there."This is a scary time," New York Times publisher A.G. Sulzberger said at a business journalism gala in New York on Thursday night.He was interviewed on stage by Kara Swisher, who asked him about his fears. Sulzberger responded by pointing out that reporters operate in war zones and other locales that are far more perilous than the streets of New York City."The New York Times tries never to operate from a place of fear," he said. "We've been operating around the world on the ground in dangerous environments for a long time. We know how to report when government minders are tracking us. We know how to report when our communications are being bugged. We know how to report when we're under threat." So, he said, he's "not particularly spooked" at this moment in time.CNN's Anderson Cooper made a similar point on Wednesday night, when he was broadcasting live from outside Time Warner Center."Terror only works when it produces fear. We are not afraid," he said. "We are here and we will be here tomorrow and we'll be here the day after and we'll be here the day after that. We have a job to do. [This] only makes our resolve that much stronger." 6044

To truly understand a disaster’s mark, step through its remains with those whose lives it's ripped apart."The fire affected everyone," said Gladis Garcia. "You're white, you're Latino, whatever you are, that doesn't matter."The final views from Garcia’s house were of wildfire flames closing in on your neighborhood in September. The flames would take her home and much of her small town of Phoenix, Oregon.She stands by what was her doorstep, searching for belongings buried in the ash, with Virginia Camberos by her side.“I would be lying if I say I’m doing alright," Camberos said.Camberos’ home survived the wildfire, but many in the Latino community she advocates for, lost everything.“The way that I find my strength is I believe there is something better for us," she said.While strength can take time, Election Day here waits for no one."How are we going to get the ballots?" Camberos asked. "How are we going to get to the homes? I mean, you see all this destruction and devastation."Oregon mailed ballots to addresses as clean-up continued, creating potential challenges for those now without homes or mailboxes, like Erica Ramirez."To me, it was worth a lot," Ramirez said of her home of 13 years that burned into a pile of metal.The state provided a website to help answer questions for voters displaced by the flames.The fire has taken so much, but not her right as an American citizen to vote in her first presidential election."I am going to vote until God gives me life and strength to do so," she said.Ramirez had her ballot sent to a temporary address, which is legal in Oregon, a process helping many voters who are unsure of where they will live next.For Camberos, as an organizer with Unite Oregon, her focus is on making sure this area’s large Latino population is heard. She says many Latino voters will be casting ballots for the first time. She posted voter information fliers across the area in both English and Spanish."It's important to connect with my community and to say, ‘We are fighting for our lives right now. We need to make change,’” she said.Change is on the minds of many impacted by the fire.“I personally believe in climate change, said Ramon De La Cruz, who lost his home of 16 years in the fire."It was very difficult seeing all of this.”His story is of the kind of loss that is now all too common across the West, but amid the rubble and pain is hope some of the worst wildfires in U.S. history won’t stop Americans here from using their power to write the next chapter."These are issues that are going to affect you, or maybe not even you, but maybe your children or the next generation," Camberos said. 2656
