Описание к видео What's Behind the Disparities in Black Women's Health? | Getting Common | Episode 13

Black women have infant and maternal mortality rates that are exponentially worse than women of other races, and are more likely to suffer from diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Studies have proven that when Black women engage with the health care system their complaints are disregarded and their pain is ignored, resulting in adverse outcomes. Are there other causes? Are there viable solutions? On this episode, Dr. Richard Jones, Board-Certified Obstetrician Gynecologist, will join the show to discuss the gendered racism in the health care system.
