African American men in Harlem have a shorter life
expectancy from age five than males in Bangladesh,
one of the poorest countries of the world. The biggest
killer are not drugs or bullets but chronic
diseases like stroke, diabetes, and heart disease.

The group that has the best overall health in the U.S.
are recent Latino immigrants despite being, on average, poorer.
Five years after arrival, Latino immigrants' health begins
to erode; within a generation, Latinos lose their advantage
and experience the higher-than-average disease rates
comparable to other low-income populations

The infant mortality rate among African Americans is two
and half times that of white Americans.
In fact, the rate among African American mothers with
college and professional degrees is higher than
among white mothers that have not finished
high school.
