Explain its findings and its recommendations in terms of our course material on
racial and economic inequalities.

Course Material:

1. Rigging The Game by Michael Schwalbe (2nd edition)
2. Exploring Inequality by Jenny Stuber (2nd Edition)

Here’s some pages that might help:

1. Schwalbe – pg 122-3, 276, 314-5, 345 (Racial Matter), not sure the economic aspect
2. Stuber- ch 14-Health& Healthcare, not sure any other pages

I know it’s Unrefined but here’s what I got if it might help:

The main objective of Injuries, Dead-End Jobs, And Racial Inequity In Amazons Minnesota Operations by Irene Tung, Maya Pinto, and Deborah Berkowitz is to inform people about how [Amazon] fails to provide a safe workplace, stable employment, and adequate compensation to its workers, who are disproportionately Black and include many East African immigrants. Some discoveries these ladies have found about Amazon is the rate of injuries, occupational segregation, racial earning/pay gap, wage decline, and costs to the public.
