It’s really important to address how much racism exists in the healthcare system. Doctors have historically believed that Black people experience less pain than non-Black people, despite no evidence of it whatsoever. Racism is perpetuated in an overwhelming amount of systems all throughout the world and it’s only by addressing it that we can start to make a difference.
You learned that from an ADVIL ad 😂
@@RabbitWatchShopwhat are you even talking about bro
@@alexandergreen7230 get from out under your rock, “bro.”
@@alexandergreen7230 They have main character syndrome. If they learned that from an Advil ad, then they have trouble believing that other people knew about it before they saw that ad, lol.
@@zoyadulzura7490 I think that one was pretty common knowledge though.
Institutional racism is real.
no the average black woman just dont tak care of themselves how many kids do they have by how many daddys is proof how many out of wedlock how many they didnt want or had just to get more money quit blaming everything on racism and look in the mirror
What does that even mean
Didn't you see during the pandemic.
That there are a ton of black police chiefs, DAs, senators, vice Presidents, governors, mayors, reporters, news anchors, Congress people, cabinet Members.
@@thedevilsadvocate5210 Your logical fallacy is personal incredulity.
Your comment betrays the symptoms of institutional racism.
You missed the point.
@@spherence
This is reality.
If there were institutional racism you wouldn't see all these black people in positions of power.
Whatever your excuse is for your unfulfilled dreams it shouldn't be institutional racism. You should take responsibility for your own shortcomings
@@thedevilsadvocate5210 I’m just another white guy.
If I am know for anything it’s taking personal responsibility for my own life.
I see you repeated your bad logic statement.
What does it feel like being that wrong?
Every woman body it’s different
Ur vote is ur voice please let’s do this don’t forget to vote for women rights 💙💙💙💙💙💙💕💕🙏🙏
What about the rights of babies? LIFE, liberty and the pursuit of happiness…
@@MrJohnathanRebelit is a first trimester fetus, it doesn’t have a cerebral cortex or nerve endings. It’s not a baby and it doesn’t have a life, it has potential but that potential does not supersede the rights of the mother.
You do not have the moral high ground.
Right. Vote to protect access to healthcare and bodily autonomy
@@MrJohnathanRebel that’s a decision for 2 people not the government or
Ur opinion
@@alexandergreen7230 very well said
Amen! Google the story about Judge Glenda Hatchett's daughter-in-law, Kira. IT IS heartbreaking. Thank you so much for posting this and good luck on your doctoral work! EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE EDUCATED ABOUT THIS ISSUE. ❤
There’s been some good info about this on the podcast circuit. I’m so glad it’s getting more attention. We gotta keep talking about, keeping writing about it, and keep raising a ruckus.
I had two children at a military hospital while my husband was in the navy.
I only had one doctor’s visit for each pregnancy due to overcrowding.
I nearly died with my second child because I knew I was in labor and doctors sent me home because they had my due date wrong and assumed it was false labor….they said I was hysterical.
At 19, they wanted to sterilize me because I had my quota of 2. If I had been 21 they would have done it without permission.
It’s not just black women, though statistically they are in worse shape. The entire medical system needs continuous education on caring for pregnant women.
Thank you, thank you!
💙🙏🏼💙
Knowledge IS power!
It certainly is. Look into Margaret Sanger and her attempt to create black genocide.
They dismiss us n all of our valid concerns ALL THE TIME!!! Don't gaf
Vote for Biden. Make things fair.
HA what a joke
Knew a black lady who died, right after he daughter came out of her. Literally. Baby came out, she laid back, and then was just gone. Two more black women I knew spent months in and out of the hospital, after they gave birth, and one suffered permanent damage after a stroke. This was over 20 years ago. You'd think doctors would know better by now. SMDH
That’s a terrible statistic!
Would love a link to good study even meta review on these factors. I’d just like to know because if we can translate this to things that help all women, it’s just naturally more likley to pass for same reason universal programs are more popular than individual group ones. I recognize the issue you mentioned, just trying to think how to mobilize more people.
Fair point, but it doesn't adress a issue of racial discrimination.
@@PlanckBunny I see that as a sort of core sub type of in group out group conflict, The blog beyond intractability might be a good one to explore, put together by two conflict and peace studies PhD’s and going through the whole blog and doing projects based on it is like earning a masters in conflict and peace studies. So once you get familiar with how it’s organized it def is high quality content. And while I really hate how right wing authoritarian personality brain structure, genetics, and socialization work, I am curious how in addition to that blog how things like polarity managment could ever be talked about in terms of managing unsolvable problems. Though it would take a bit of education but be useful for people to know
@@PlanckBunny also, creating curriculums that aid people in handling ambiguity and uncertainty would be helpful on many fronts though it dosent address this directly, often people’s tolerance of it does become a bottleneck.
let’s talk about culture…
Yeah, culture of how Black women get treated at a lot of hospitals. Yeah, let's talk about that and how messed up that is. That's what you meant, right?
@@MDSmith-bg6obis that the only aspect you’re willing to talk about?
@@spaomalley"let's talk about culture"
Two seconds later:
"Noooo, not like that!" 😭
I was expecting the reasons you discovered while working on your doctorate to be informative. Instead, you provided the default argument everyone is tired of hearing.
I'm so sorry you don't like to hear the truth..?
😮 Y'all keep hearing it cuz no one is listening enough to do anything to effectively help!
Go read the paper
@@Acidfunkish No, I know what scholarly sources are. After all, like him, I also went to college and wrote papers. What I assume - although I haven’t researched it - is that black mothers often lack health insurance, putting them at a disadvantage while in the hospital. If you don’t have health insurance, hospitals do not value you at all. I know from firsthand experience. This is a legitimate example, not labeling the sole reason being discrimination. That happens, yes, but he provided nothing other than that. That’s it. And that’s my problem with his report (and research paper).
@@sebcw1204 why? I don’t have to read it. He provided no other reason than discrimination. That’s it? That’s an obvious self-evident issue, but there are more issues at play than that. And he failed to list those issues. I’m not wasting my time reading his paper.
Ya . Stop doing street drugs when knocked up
Funny cause a lot of white people are cracked out😂
We all go to the same schools. Stop the cap!
We dont though schools in black neighborhoods are severely under funded which means they would have a completely different experience
@@gabrielleguitarist5043
There aren't black neighborhoods.
Black people live everywhere.
Your continued stereotypes only holds the black man down.
Classic victim, nothing new here
Well we could go back to natural child birth like our ancestors but no one wants to hear that.
Do you mean when the maternal mortality rates was higher?
What’s really unfortunate is that people would rather blame racism than to actually put in the work to find the legitimate cause of the problem and how to prevent it.
Because it is causes by racism in the healthcare system black women are not given the same treatment as white women
True or false many doctors give black patients less care because they believe they're inherently more resistant and feels less pain.
IS YOUR STUDY PUBLISHED? IF SO, WHERE?
