Currently re-reading Medical Apartheid and Killing the Black Body. I'm writing on why I don't agree that Doulas can change the rates of Maternal Mortality. It may not ever be published but I need to study more on why I feel this way.
And I think the shift in my perspective happened when I got back from El paso and started attending births with wealth ww. Witnessing white women get abused, ignored, yell at etc in labor honestly shocked. I was used to it witnessing it with BIPOC but that I wasnt ready for
