Spectrum News: “It’s Not Just” Campaign

Spectrum News interviewed Judy Rightmyer, director of Capital District Tobacco-Free Communities for its story on the “It’s Not Just” campaign.

The statewide initiative urges action against the marketing of menthol cigarettes. It is focused on ending the misconception that menthol is just a flavor. As the campaign states, it’s not just a flavor — it’s an injustice, and it’s killing African Americans.

Capital District Tobacco-Free Communities is a grant-supported program of St. Peter’s Health Partners.
