Ep 7 - Black Women in Maternity Care with Teree Fruga

Black women are three to four times more likely to experience a pregnancy-related death than white women.  This isn't due to health issues or poverty.  The number one reason for this disparity is racism! Join Rai and Blanca as they talk with Teree Fruga-one of only a handful of Black midwives in the entire state of Texas.  Hear Teree breakdown how Black women can advocate for ourselves and our babies and why Black midwives matter!
