    Rep. Joe Kennedy III Retweeted MomsRising

    There is no excuse for the lack of organized data surrounding #MaternalMortality and its racial disparities. Black women are still 3-4x more likely to die from pregnancy complications, even when you control for socioeconomic differences. #MaternalJusticehttps://twitter.com/MomsRising/status/1057064563169001474 …

    Q3: Some maternal health improvements have occurred in states like California, but even successful efforts have largely not impacted the disparate outcomes Black women have faced for decades. Why is this? #MaternalJustice

        Hard truth is that this issue is bigger than a health chart. It's about how + why the voices of black patients are discounted or denied. Not a phenomenon limited to health care by any means - a societal stain this country desperately must address. #MaternalJustice

        While I appreciate state-level efforts to make #MaternalJustice a priority - CA has made great strides with inequity in maternal care, and my home state of MA is studying autopsy reports & medical charts of those who suffered maternal deaths - we must do better.

        Perhaps you should "drill down" to the true underlying cause of that, instead of leading folks to believe "racism"...if you want to do a legitimate study, let me know. I can help.

        I believe he's referencing decades of sociological research on the subject, but it's good to know you're so quick to discount racism as a problem for black women in an area of their lives where they might be most vulnerable: their medical care. Shows us who you really are.
