Acclaimed author and advocate Kimberly Seals Allers joins us to talk about the disparity of care when it comes to maternal healthcare for Black bodies.
Kimberly discusses the ways in which Black women and mothers are systemically denied the standard of care for their white counterparts, often with deadly consequences. She shares the power of a patient advocate approach, harnessing the power of capitalism to compel the healthcare system to do better, and sheds light on the daily realities of the convergence of Blackness and medicine.
