did you know evidence shows that care (during pregnancy and postpartum) from a midwife or doula increases the chances of a healthy birth for both mom and baby?

tonight, we get to hear from a group of doulas and midwives who are improving the health and birthing outcomes and experiences of people of color, especially Black birthing people. we also get to learn about how we can better support their work so we continue on an upward trajectory to ending the Black maternal health crisis.

“Simply experiencing racism can be a determinant for racial inequities in maternal health, said Jones. Weathering, or the physiological consequences of constant stress conditions, contributes to these health disparities. Constant exposure to discrimination creates a persistent “fight or flight” response, said Jones. The hormones and neurotransmitters released during this kind of stress are also related to non-communicable diseases like hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, and other chronic conditions persistent in Black communities. Additionally, the weathering effect is associated with an eight years shorter lifespan for Black women than white women. ‘Being presented with chronic stress of being Black in the U.S. is weathering us. It is physically aging us, physically making us more susceptible to chronic illness,’ said Jones.” - excerpt from Structural Racism and its Impact on Black Maternal Health

tonight we get to take a deep dive into how racism impacts childbirth and maternal health. we will be listen to physicians discuss how they identify and challenge racism in the field and what they are doing to close the racial gap in birth outcomes.
