Meet Kimberly Seals Allers, a journalist turned entrepreneur whose goal is to provide better birthing outcomes for black and brown women. As the Founder of Irth (“Birth” without the ‘b’ for bias), Kimberly has channeled her own delivery experience into a community site that enables new moms and doulas to provide candid reviews of their care providers and hospitals. As she tells Kindred Media’s Laura Clinton, Irth’s thoughtfully solicited feedback can be an important resource for addressing unconscious bias in maternal health care.
To hear more from Kimberly, check out her Birthright podcast (www.BirthrightPodcast.com) and follow her @iamKSealsAllers on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. You can find Irth at @theIrthApp on Instagram and Facebook and @irthapp on Twitter.
