Black women are three times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than white women — and most of those deaths are preventable.
In this urgent episode of Outspoken with Regina, we dig deep into the systems that have created and sustained the Black maternal health crisis—and highlight the visionary leadership of those fighting to change them.
Dr. Regina Davis Moss hosts a conversation with three powerful voices in Reproductive Justice and maternal health, covering:
* The historical and present-day drivers of Black maternal mortality
* The role of midwives, doulas, and community-based care in saving lives
* The policy solutions we need now—and the ones we’ve long been waiting for
This is more than a panel. It’s a call to act, organize, and advocate for a future where Black birthing people receive the care, dignity, and justice they deserve.
Call to Action:
→ Watch the full conversation.→ Share it with your community.→ Learn how to support the organizations and leaders working on the frontlines of Black maternal health.
