Mapping Maternity Care Deserts with Stacey Stewart #171
In the United States black women are 3 to 4 times more likely to die due to pregnancy-related complications. Black babies are twice as likely to die before their first birthday.

This is a powerful conversation that I consider required listening for all–especially those of us looking to fill the gaps in medicine and healthcare.
