As a future midwife and a student researcher at @BirthPlaceLab , this infuriates me. Medical racism is pervasive and further ingrained by MANY medical education programs. Anti-racist and anti-oppressive practice is REQUIRED to be a good HCP. #WeHaveMetTheEnemy #TheyAreUs
Medical Racism scares me so much this video is terrifying

At the l talk @TatyanaAli highlights the lack of respect in maternity care. It's not the responsibility of birthing people to be informed; it's the responsibility of the system and of those who care for them to change. @BirthPlaceLab panel discussion #healthequity
Black pregnant people 2x as likely to be coerced into procedures + undergo them without consent. Study reveals racist human rights violations in US perinatal + birth care. 🖊@rachelglogan @mclemoremr @doczo1 @Nisha_Malhotra, K Stoll, S Vedam @BirthPlaceLab bit.ly/39Uws4O

From the Canadian maternity care survey 49 women had no accommodation when they gave birth. It doesn’t matter - “out of how many” That’s 50 too many homeless births RESPCCT conducted at @BirthPlaceLab #maternity #MNCH #birthplace
