Black women are dying while giving birth at an accelerating rate and no one is doing anything about it. When the discussion of reproductive justice takes place, people discuss abortion rights and birth control, but can we discuss morality rates! #njcurj #blackmoralityrate
Over the years, the medical field is improving with modern day technology, yet the morality rates of black women and children are still increasing. The problem cannot go away until we take into accountability these factors are because of racism. #njcurj #blackmoralityrate
For black women to stop dying during childbirth, there needs to be a change in the treatment of black women. Economic hardship, oppression, stress, prenatal healthcare and genetics are the main causes I believe effect the life of a black pregnant woman.

Black women have a harder life before during and after pregnancy than white women. There should be no confusion why these factors are the main cause of such a high mortality rate. Generational oppression created diseases and stress related genetic problems. #njcurj #childbirth
The government has created multiple barriers creating obstacles for black people to live comfortably in America creating our diet to be less healthy than it could be. High cholesterol, diabetes, some genetic aspects to why prenatal care before childbirth is so important #njcurj
Black pregnant women deal with environmental oppression like not having enough prenatal care resources. Healthcare is available if you can afford it. Americans cannot afford health insurance since the cost of living is more than what the average citizen gets in salary. #njcurj
Genocide has been performed on black people for centuries and killing the carrier of our black children is the goal for racism. In a perfect world, there will be an equal opportunity for all races to have a shot at life no matter the skin color. #njcurj #blackmoralityrate
I believe doctors are racist no matter what oath they took in the medical field and this mindset is the number one cause why black women are not getting proper treatment during childbirth. Black women are the number one victim to C-sections deaths. #njcurj #blackmoralityrate
Coincidence? I do not think so. There should be psychological test given to all medical caretakers to ensure they are not racist by unconscious motives. There should be free healthcare for American citizens who are living in America. #njcurj #blackmoralityrate #childbirth
The problems black people deal with have to do with the sabotage given to us by the government created either by socioeconomic hardship or direct attempts to not give the proper care during childbirth. This causes multiple hardships for my people #njcurj #BlackLivesMatter
People need to first see black women as a person with value and respect first and foremost. If people saw black women for more than just our skin complication, the treatment given to our pregnant women will naturally change. #njcurj #blackmortalityrate #BlackWomen
Men need to stop seeing women as property, once this happens, the genocide on the African race will end along with the incarceration of black men. Genocide to the African race is real and demonstrated through our women and men.#njcurj #blackmortalityrate #BlackLivesMatter
Once there is a change in the way society views African descent people, the treatment provided to us will benefit our entire lives physically and mentally. @JenniferMusial #njcurj #blackmortalityrate #BlackLivesMatter
