Across American history, the question of whose lives are long and healthy and whose lives are short and sick has always been shaped by the social and economic order. From the dispossession of Indigenous people and the horrors of slavery to infectious diseases spreading in overcrowded tenements and the vast environmental contamination caused by industrialization, and through climate change and pandemics in the twenty-first century, those in power have left others behind.

“Not all enemies wear faces. Not all heroes seek fame.” It came without a warning. No horns. No fire. No crashing skies. Just breath… carrying more than air. An invisible presence moved through us—quietly, quickly, and without favour. It didn’t ask for passports. It didn’t care about class. It didn’t knock before entering. And suddenly… everything we thought we knew about safety, community, and survival unravelled. We panicked. We scrambled. We blamed. But slowly… Quietly… We remembered. That cleanliness is not just a habit. It is a shield.

Over the past ten years, statistics show a high-rise of this disease and how obesity is only addressed when an individual is diagnosed with it, leaving little success in achieving healthy results that are sustained over a long period of time.
