Diana Hernandez, Assistant Professor of Sociomedical Sciences, Columbia University'This searing, visceral post-mortem of the 1995 Chicago Heatwave reminds us of the painfully deep spatial inequities and injustices that are baked into the very DNA of US cities. "00:07:36.300 --> 00:07:38.134[dramatic music]00:07:38.134 --> 00:07:40.299- Well, the chief medicalexaminer tells us tonight00:07:40.299 --> 00:07:44.299that at least 50 more bodiesawait examination tomorrow.00:07:44.299 --> 00:07:47.009The crush was so intense,a refrigerated truck00:07:47.009 --> 00:07:51.925was brought in to store bodiesuntil staff could get to them.00:07:52.050 --> 00:07:55.341We just saw five morerefrigerated trucks go by us.00:07:55.341 --> 00:07:57.009Apparently the onerefrigerated truck00:07:57.009 --> 00:07:58.550they've got back thereis already full,00:07:58.550 --> 00:08:01.092but they're now discoveringthe bodies that were dead00:08:01.092 --> 00:08:04.925on Thursday and Friday,as they begin to decompose.00:08:04.925 --> 00:08:08.25900:08:08.259 --> 00:08:09.800- There had been noannouncements on the news,00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:13.383no discussion from the city,no checking on people.00:08:13.383 --> 00:08:15.050But the minuteyou see in the paper00:08:15.050 --> 00:08:16.508or on the news--wherever I saw it first--00:08:16.508 --> 00:08:18.299that there wererefrigerated trucks,00:08:18.299 --> 00:08:19.717that means there's so manydead bodies00:08:19.717 --> 00:08:22.050that the coroner doesn'thave room for 'em anymore.00:08:22.050 --> 00:08:22.758That's enough!00:08:22.758 --> 00:08:25.925Right there, you knowyou were in trouble.00:08:26.299 --> 00:08:29.217- They were doing autopsiesaround the clock.00:08:29.217 --> 00:08:31.175- You almost had to runa gauntlet00:08:31.175 --> 00:08:34.259to walk through anywhere00:08:34.259 --> 00:08:37.299to avoid touching a body.00:08:37.299 --> 00:08:39.842It looked like a war zone.00:08:40.299 --> 00:08:42.758- I had to get up in a truckand basically had to go through00:08:42.758 --> 00:08:44.758every remain,checking toe tags,00:08:44.758 --> 00:08:48.050until we could find the personsthat we were coming to get.00:08:48.050 --> 00:08:51.508So in the event of someonethat I was picking up,00:08:51.508 --> 00:08:54.299it was, like, maybe a coupleof people on top,00:08:54.299 --> 00:08:56.591so you had to just tryto move them over.00:08:56.591 --> 00:09:00.299It was just--it was--yeah, it was sad, really.00:09:00.299 --> 00:09:02.299It was a sight.00:09:02.299 --> 00:09:08.46600:09:08.466 --> 00:09:11.550- Saturday morning, I came in,and we had 87 cases,00:09:11.550 --> 00:09:13.550Sunday morning,we had 83 cases.00:09:13.550 --> 00:09:15.217And today we have 117.00:09:15.217 --> 00:09:17.633Now, our average is 17.00:09:17.633 --> 00:09:18.758So what we're seeing here00:09:18.758 --> 00:09:22.299is, we're seeingan excess mortality.00:09:23.842 --> 00:09:26.300- We cannot say exactlyhow many deaths00:09:26.300 --> 00:09:28.842are a direct resultof the heat,00:09:28.842 --> 00:09:32.425but we know that the numberof nonviolent deaths00:09:32.425 --> 00:09:36.300over the last four dayscontinue to climb.00:09:36.300 --> 00:09:38.134In the last four days--00:09:38.134 --> 00:09:40.092- "Nonviolent deaths"?00:09:40.092 --> 00:09:42.800I had to stopand replay the mayor's comment00:09:42.800 --> 00:09:43.633a few times over00:09:43.633 --> 00:09:47.383to try and wrap my head aroundwhat he meant by that term.00:09:47.383 --> 00:09:50.883- But the number of nonviolentdeaths continue to climb.00:09:50.883 --> 00:09:53.633- Because being cookedto death behind closed doors00:09:53.633 --> 00:09:58.217seemed to me to bea pretty violent way to die.00:10:02.009 --> 00:10:05.425- Oh, when you hear three--well, when you have 339 people,00:10:05.425 --> 00:10:06.591there's a lot of people dead.00:10:06.591 --> 00:10:09.134I mean, that's a lot of people.00:10:10.466 --> 00:10:11.299- Mrs. Crockett?00:10:11.299 --> 00:10:12.800- The crisisintervention workers00:10:12.800 --> 00:10:14.550respond to calls of concern.00:10:14.550 --> 00:10:17.175A 60-year-old womanhadn't been heard from.00:10:17.175 --> 00:10:21.134- Take all this away from here,and open this window up.00:10:21.134 --> 00:10:22.591- Well, I'm on the first floor.00:10:22.591 --> 00:10:23.842- Are you afraid of somebody00:10:23.842 --> 00:10:25.299throwing some bricksor something?00:10:25.299 --> 00:10:26.299- They'll come in.00:10:26.299 --> 00:10:27.633- You have a screen here,don't you, dear?00:10:27.633 --> 00:10:30.259- Yes, what will a sharp knifedo to a screen?00:10:30.259 --> 00:10:31.550- Yes, it will.00:10:32.299 --> 00:10:34.758- As I watchedthis agonizing choice00:10:34.758 --> 00:10:37.758between staying safeand staying cool,00:10:37.758 --> 00:10:39.717I thought about the ninerefrigerated trucks00:10:39.717 --> 00:10:43.009that were parked outsidethe county morgue for weeks,00:10:43.009 --> 00:10:46.300filled with hundredsof deceased Chicago residents,00:10:46.300 --> 00:10:49.508and how ironic it wasthat they finally got00:10:49.508 --> 00:10:51.842the air-conditioningthey needed00:10:51.842 --> 00:10:54.550while awaiting autopsy.00:10:55.300 --> 00:10:58.425- Cooler air came rushing inacross the country today00:10:58.425 --> 00:10:59.967after a brutal heat wave.00:10:59.967 --> 00:11:01.299Many are wondering tonight,00:11:01.299 --> 00:11:03.675how could heatkill so many people?00:11:03.675 --> 00:11:06.383- The sexinessfor the news media was,00:11:06.383 --> 00:11:08.299it was about the heat,00:11:08.299 --> 00:11:09.425but the real story is,00:11:09.425 --> 00:11:13.175why were peoplein these neighborhoods dying?00:11:13.175 --> 00:11:15.717People weren't dyingon the North Side.00:11:15.717 --> 00:11:18.300People weren't dyingin the Gold Coast.00:11:18.300 --> 00:11:21.800People were dyingon the South and West Sides.00:11:21.800 --> 00:11:26.96700:11:26.967 --> 00:11:30.299- Why is it that people die00:11:30.299 --> 00:11:31.883during an extremeweather event?00:11:31.883 --> 00:11:35.175- Well, I think, you know,people die from the heat00:11:35.175 --> 00:11:39.550for twohighly correlated reasons.00:11:39.550 --> 00:11:43.134If you havea preexisting condition00:11:43.134 --> 00:11:45.300that's already weakenedyour body,00:11:45.300 --> 00:11:47.092then clearlyit's gonna be easier00:11:47.092 --> 00:11:48.299for the heat to kill you.00:11:48.299 --> 00:11:52.092And the second and intimatelyrelated factor is,00:11:52.092 --> 00:11:56.299they're not able to defendthemselves against the heat,00:11:56.299 --> 00:11:58.550and that defense could be00:11:58.550 --> 00:12:01.550in terms of openingtheir windows,00:12:01.550 --> 00:12:03.383and in poor,vulnerable communities,00:12:03.383 --> 00:12:05.341people don't wantto open their windows.00:12:05.341 --> 00:12:08.758It could be by turning onthe air conditioner,00:12:08.758 --> 00:12:10.175and in vulnerable communities,00:12:10.175 --> 00:12:12.299people don't haveair-conditioning.00:12:12.299 --> 00:12:16.299And it could also begoing outside their house00:12:16.299 --> 00:12:18.425and going to an institution00:12:18.425 --> 00:12:19.967where there isair-conditioning.00:12:19.967 --> 00:12:21.842For example, a public library00:12:21.842 --> 00:12:23.050might have air-conditioning,00:12:23.050 --> 00:12:25.134or even the lobbyof an apartment house00:12:25.134 --> 00:12:26.633might have air-conditioning.00:12:26.633 --> 00:12:28.466And vulnerable communities00:12:28.466 --> 00:12:31.883tend not to have thoseas well.00:12:31.883 --> 00:12:35.29900:12:38.299 --> 00:12:40.299- We've offered that,but there's not a great number00:12:40.299 --> 00:12:43.092of people who have come inand taken advantage of it.00:12:43.092 --> 00:12:46.550There's really very littleexplanation for it.00:12:46.550 --> 00:12:48.383- Thank you.- Thank you.00:12:49.299 --> 00:12:50.633- Thank you.00:12:51.299 --> 00:12:55.050- Do you think this hasanything to do with race?00:12:55.050 --> 00:12:58.092- I think that00:12:58.092 --> 00:13:01.175I have to go with--there's a saying in Chicago00:13:01.175 --> 00:13:03.341that's, everythingis about race.00:13:03.341 --> 00:13:05.591You don't have to be poorto be black.00:13:05.591 --> 00:13:08.341You don't have to be blackto be poor.00:13:08.341 --> 00:13:10.092But00:13:10.717 --> 00:13:14.217- Just as many Chicagoanswere starting to realize00:13:14.217 --> 00:13:15.842that the black communityhad suffered00:13:15.842 --> 00:13:18.299a disproportionatenumber of deaths,00:13:18.299 --> 00:13:20.633Mayor Daley wenton the offensive.00:13:20.633 --> 00:13:22.134- Daley pointeda finger of blame00:13:22.134 --> 00:13:24.591at some of the familiesof the senior citizens00:13:24.591 --> 00:13:27.134who died all alonein the hellish heat.00:13:27.134 --> 00:13:30.217- We have to appeal to allthe family members00:13:30.217 --> 00:13:33.175of seniors to call,go over there,00:13:33.175 --> 00:13:35.092see their mother or father00:13:35.092 --> 00:13:36.217or their aunt and uncle.00:13:36.217 --> 00:13:37.550That is a must.00:13:37.883 --> 00:13:39.383- I think there was denial.00:13:39.383 --> 00:13:44.092A lot of the heads of statewere in denial00:13:44.092 --> 00:13:45.967about what was going on,you see,00:13:45.967 --> 00:13:49.925because it didn'ttouch them directly.00:13:49.925 --> 00:13:53.175- Do you think it's reallyabout the heat?00:13:53.175 --> 00:13:54.299- No.00:13:54.299 --> 00:13:58.009No, it's just aboutthe lack of--00:13:58.009 --> 00:14:00.758oh, God help me,I don't want to say that.00:14:00.758 --> 00:14:02.217- [whispering]Just say
