I read your article entitled “A mother’s love... what you need to know about Maternal Health care in "The Color of Wellness” magazine. Love that you strategically pinpointed the problems and made it so that it is overwhelmingly available for everyone to see as fact. I love the solutions you offer as most of the time, we hear there’s an issue, but no comprehensive solutions. Black and brown folks appreciate being heard 🔊. Thank you, have a beautiful day.

It’s valuable how Dr. J shared that technology doesn’t solve everything. For example, fetal heart tracings aren’t even utilized in many countries whose mortality rate is lower than in the U.S. She offered evidence-based information to back up her recommendations. The information that I felt was key was how she highlighted how racism, not any inherent racial physical differences are what affects maternal morbidity and mortality.
