Why are black mothers more likely to experience maternal mortality in the United States? Dr. Declerq, Professor of Community Health Sciences at Boston University School of Public Health has investigated the challenges associated with defining the American mortality rate as well as America’s outlier status as a poor provider of maternal protection. He joins us this week in part two of our reproductive justice series to talk about how healthcare missteps and systemic failures leave American mothers with grim birth outcomes, and how we could attempt to reverse the trend. www.seriouslyamericashow.comAbout this episode, and transcript.
