Episode 218: Remembering Tori Bowie and other Black maternal death victims

Black maternal death rates are alarmingly high and rising. Olympic gold medalist Tori Bowie is one of the latest victims of this epidemic. Racial bias is endemic to the American healthcare system. Learn the historical roots (from slavery) of medical racism in the United States. We will also discuss how Black women can protect themselves within the medical system and in the doctor's office. This show is designed to empower Black women to protect their health and to experience the safe and loving birthing experience of their dreams. 

Warning: This show discusses maternal death experiences and the in utero death of an unborn baby. This can trigger difficult emotions and memories. Please listen with caution and take self-care steps to protect your mental health.
