In the latest episode of the DotLife podcast, host Erin Caldwell talks with Dr. Bisola Ojikutu, executive director of the Boston Public Health Commission, to unpack Boston’s first-ever Black life expectancy report and what it reveals about widening health disparities in the city.
They explore why Black residents—especially Black men—are dying years earlier, and how factors like housing, income, and systemic inequities shape these outcomes.
