According to the CDC, infant mortality rates for 2021 were 541 deaths for every 100,000 births. Now, this may not come off as an eye-brow-raising statistic if we're talking purely math. However, we're talking about human lives. Family members. Our nation's future.
Up to 42 days after giving birth, more and more Black mamas are losing their lives. Throughout the episode, we take a closer look at startling statistics that inevitably illuminate this crisis.
These numbers are a call to action, and this episode was created in an effort to stimulate thoughts and conversation in support of solutions.
If you’re a frequent flier here, you know that we normally highlight programs that help children explore that vastness of education beyond the textbook so that we can close America’s education gap together.
Continuing in the spirit of our mission, today’s guest, Ashlee Jaye, is closing the education gap on the birthing process for us adults, and giving you a deeper look into practices and habits around America’s healthcare system for mothers giving birth.
Ashlee presents food for thought as well as options for creating pregnancy and birthing experiences that are unique to each mother’s personal desires.
