Childbirth has been a part of human existence for, well, forever, yet the experience has changed significantly over time. For African American women and their babies, birth outcomes have mirrored the racial and economic disparities of our society. Join us for this historical look at race and childbirth in the U.S. Our speaker, Dr. Wangui Muigai of Brandeis University, will guide us through major changes and challenges that have shaped black childbirth outcomes from slavery to present day.
