Reproductive Justice illustrates the healthcare discrepancies that people of African descent encounter with their pregnancies, in the United States.  Bruce Mc Intyre III's emotional testimony details how his loved one Amber Rose Isaac, lost her life on April 21, 2020, during a last minute C-section. It is believed that this malfeasance was derived, from systemic racial biases that are deeply rooted in the U.S. healthcare industry. This interview was recorded in 2021. We thank Mr. Mc Intyre III for sharing his story and his heroic activism to educate our people, with respect to their options and call out such divisiveness in the healthcare industry. You can follow Bruce's work at his foundation called Save A Rose Foundation - https://www.savearosefoundation.org Thank you for streaming. Stay tuned for Part 2, which features OBGYN Dr. Tia Welsh and board certified psychiatrist Dr. Karinn Glover. There we will discuss healthcare biases, postpartum and remedies.

Life is full of lessons. For kids, those lessons, just like life, can come at them quick. As parents, we have to use our judgement to decide when and where to teach those lessons. When our little is having a full meltdown, trying to teach them why whatever happened to them is causing issues isn't the best time. We parents have to have better timing because if we really want our kids to learn the lesson, then they need to be in a state that allows them to take in the info you are trying to teach. This week on the podcast, Charisse discusses when it's the right time to teach these lessons and how to make sure your child actually listens and learns from that lesson!

The United States has the highest maternal mortality rate of any high-income nation in the world — and it is Black mothers who are dying at the highest rates. Black birthing people are three times more likely to die in childbirth, but about 84% of those deaths are preventable. For this episode of Meet the BIPOC Press with our partner URL Media, a network of Black and Brown owned and operated news outlets, Laura Flanders is joined again by co-host Sara Lomax of Philadelphia's WURD Radio. They invite Marianne Fray, the CEO of Maternity Care Coalition and Kenya Hunter, the Atlanta Health Reporter for Capital B News, to discuss how Black women and birthing people are taking control of their pregnancies. Explore the community-centered responses that may lead to better pregnancy outcomes and a more equitable healthcare system.“We all came into this world through some person and it is a miraculous thing. If we could spend a little time reflecting on that, and then set up ourselves or whomever chooses to have children with the best possible outcome.” - Marianne Fray“There was a researcher from the University of Colorado, Boulder, who predicted a 21% jump in pregnancy-related deaths in the country if Roe v Wade was overturned. But that number then jumps to 33% when you're talking about Black women.” - Kenya Hunter“. . . Birth was a business practice in many ways. Children were ripped from us. Black women were experimented on by the ‘father of gynecology,' Marion Sims in the 1840s . . .  I do think Black women are carrying a lot of historical trauma related to birthing and childbearing.”Guests:Marianne Fray: CEO, Maternity Care CoalitionKenya Hunter: Atlanta Health Reporter, Capital B NewsSara Lomax: Co-Founder, URL Media; President & CEO, WURD RadioFull Show Notes are located HERE.  They include related episodes, articles, and more to dive deeper.Music In the Middle:   “Time Shlime” by Rithma courtesy of Om Records.

Charisse has been fielding all the questions lately about her absence and we hear you! Like all parents, she had to juggle all the things: a spouse out of town, children in three different parts of the city, and coordinating with a babysitter and look, things did not go as planned. One of Charisse's little heavens did the babysitter DIRTY yall, like ran her out of the house with tears in her eyes dirty. And Charisse felt like the worst  parent, the worst educator, and questioned this whole gentle parenting thing. But the truth of it is, there was a reason why her child was acting this way AND gentle parenting was not the cause.  Sometimes we all need a moment to process what is going on. As adults, it is much easier than it is as tiny humans because we understand self regulation. Listen in as Charisse shares what processing looked like for her in this moment, what you can do as a parent when you feel like you're at the end of your rope, and how you can help your children learn how to process their very big feelings in a productive manner.If you have a question you need Charisse to answer Fill out our form  or join the Parenting for the Culture Class (its FREE)and discuss every episode with Charisse every Friday after the episode drops!Don't forget to connect with Charisse @charissesimsIf you learned something today, make sure you tell another parent so they can get in on the info!
