Harris Suggests Black Women In U.S. More Likely To Die In Childbirth Because of ‘Implicit Bias’
Conservative Brief ^ | 4/14 | Martin Walsh

Posted on 04/14/2021 6:56:15 AM PDT by TrumpianRepublican

Kamala Harris on Tuesday said black women in the U.S. are more likely to die from pregnancy-related complications because, in part, of “systemic racial inequities.”

The White House issued its first-ever presidential proclamation marking Black Maternal Health Week, where Harris claimed there are racial gaps in pregnancy and childbirth-related deaths and complications in the United States.

“Black women in our country are facing a maternal health crisis. We know the primary reasons why: systemic racial inequities and implicit bias,” Harris said.

“Black women deserve to be heard. Their voices deserve to be respected,” Harris said. “And like all people, they must be treated with dignity.”

Couldn't possibly have anything to do with their personal choices. /sarc

Reality check - black women are more likely to die from complications because of life style choices.

“Their voices deserve to be respected,”
My momma taught me that respect is earned, not an entitlement. She was a lot smarter than Willie’s whore.

Yes they need quality women’s health clinics. Maybe they can get Gosnell to chair an advisory board on this subject.

“Black women deserve to be heard. Their voices deserve to be respected,” Harris said. “And like all people, they must be treated with dignity.”

I think her first call should be to every rapper who characterizes black females as “B’s and Ho’s”.

Sounds like a problem within her own community.

Harris said that Black women in the US are more likely to suffer from big butts because of racism.

Black Caucus is the closest thing to actual institutional racism that exists.

That is because Obamacare is systemically racist and needs to be abolished.

Black Maternal Health Week,

I read, Black Mental Health Week, which would be more appropriate to discern why 96% vote against their own interests.

Title misleading. I went to article and there was nothing mentioned about Biden or anyone kicked out of a meeting.

Could they be more uneducated and less prenatal care?

Race is all that matters.

What do whites think will ultimately make it better? Where does it end?

Right. Nothing in the article about Biden.

Moderators, please fix the title.

You assume they know where babies come from. I’ve long suspected many women “of color” have never made the connection between sexual intercourse and pregnancy.
