Most folx know how I feel about shady DMs. Why a Caucus of Black Midwives? That’s easy.

CM/CNM attend 1% of the births of white non-Latinx mamas. 52% of US birthing people

CM/CNM attend 8% of births of Black women 13% of birthing people

Thanks @RjWarrior for your #APHA talk
So @ACNMmidwives literally attend the births of Black mamas 2:1 to our white counterparts. <10% CM/CNM are Black, probably 5% but we don’t know because it certifying body doesn’t report the demographics of the workforce in 2020 @acog knows the demographics of its workforce
Out of nearly 40 CNM/CM education programs there is 1 Black program director & those of us Black midwives who precept & mentor Black students daily hear about behaviors and actions from program faculty can be labeled as nothing other than white supremacy.
