In 1970, the Young Lords staged an occupation of the Lincoln Hospital in the South Bronx, New York City. This occupation took place as a protest to demand for better health care and practices by the Lincoln Hospital administrative staff. The takeover resulted in hundreds of news reports that highlighted and publicized the inadequacies of the Lincoln Hospital. In the years that followed, laws were changed that provided the residents of the South Bronx (at the time, primarily African-American and Puerto Rican residents) with improved healthcare. However, discrepancies in funding for hospitals in lower-income areas, such as the Lincoln Hospital in the South Bronx, remain so.
