Addressing the Black maternal health crisis

In February 2020, Kamala Harris hosted a gathering focused on addressing the Black maternal health crisis. During the event, she emphasized the uncomfortable truth that Black women are often not taken seriously when they express concerns about their health and pain, a systemic issue that contributes to disproportionately higher maternal mortality rates among Black women in the U.S. Harris highlighted the urgent need for collective action to address this public health crisis, advocating for greater awareness, medical accountability, and improved care for Black mothers. #MomentsOfLife #MoofLife_Moment #KamalaHarris
