According to a working paper by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley and the University of Chicago, job applicants with names that suggest they are Black are getting fewer callbacks from employers than those with names that suggest they are white. The typical employer called back the presumed-white applicants around 9% more than Black ones. That rose to around 24% for the worst offenders. The research team has now named the 97 companies they studied and assigned them grades. "Putting the names out there in the public domain is to move away from a lot of the performative allyship that you see with these companies, saying, 'Oh, we value inclusivity and diversity,'" Pat Kline, an economics professor who worked on the study told NPR.

Africa's fight against #urban #air #pollution
"With #urbanization and #economic #development, there is more pollution of air in urban areas, which exposes people to diseases that are linked to this polluted air," Felix Assah, a member of the population #health #research group at the #University of #Yaounde, told #DW. Such diseases include #cardiovascular and #respiratory ailments, along with #cancer.
Experts and organizations working for #cleaner air in Africa recently met in Yaounde to discuss how they can cooperate to monitor air quality using #sensor #technology
