To be Black anywhere in America is to experience higher rates of chronic ailments like asthma, diabetes, high blood pressure, Alzheimer's and, most recently, COVID-19. Black women have the highest maternal mortality rate in the United States - 69.9 per 100,000 live births for 2021, almost three times the rate for white women, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.īlack babies are more likely to die, and also far more likely to be born prematurely, setting the stage for health issues that could follow them through their lives.Īngelica Lyons tears up while recalling her birthing experience during an interview in Birmingham, Ala., on Feb.

Angelica said she wasn’t taken seriously until a searing pain rocketed throughout her body and her baby’s heart rate plummeted. Doctors and nurses told her she was suffering from normal contractions, she said, even as her abdominal pain worsened and she began to vomit bile. Her pleas for help were shrugged off, she said, and she was repeatedly sent home from the hospital. What should have been a joyous first pregnancy quickly turned into a nightmare when she began to suffer debilitating stomach pain. Then, in 2019, it nearly happened to her. Like I said above, no door needed if you use the reversible fan.0:00 / 0:00 Listen to an AP radio version of the story However, it may make you feel like you are riding in a coffin after you hear stories about not being able to get out in an emergency because you cant open the door and the rear window is too small to get out.
