This is a puzzle we could easily solve. We have the knowledge and tools to do so. Right now at @BirthEquity we are entrenched in measurement. - Carmen Green, MD
Raising the bar for Black mamas means raising the bar for everyone. - Carmen Green @BirthEquity
It’s interesting when we have to train healthcare providers to trust their patients with their own bodies. - Carmen Green @BirthEquity #RaisingTheBar
Our respectful maternity care initiative is creating this research and uplifting solutions that matter. We are trying to influence systems and audiences at all levels and stakeholders that are in this fight with us. It really kicks oppression right in the teeth. -Carmen Green

One Black person dying during #childbirth is too many. During this #BlackHistoryMonth, and every other month of the year, we’re resolute on the goal of improving access to high-quality health care for Black women. Image
FACT: When it comes to health care in the U.S., Black pregnant people experience the worst outcomes. The time is now: we must prioritize Black maternal health. So… how do we do it?
Access to health coverage, from birth control to maternity care, is crucial for a lifetime of good health for mother and child. #AbortionJustice Image
