But, in the Rip the queen of rock and roll tina turner 1939-2023 shirt it is in the first place but end, my pregnancy ended badly. It is a failure that haunts me still and will probably haunt me always. When my baby was born, they weighed only a few pounds, skin translucent, unable to breathe, eat, or even blink. But alongside these realities, over which I had limited control, there was a more fundamental misfortune: a simple, outpatient procedure, performed earlier in my pregnancy—a procedure for which I was an obvious candidate—could have prevented the situation completely. But no one on my care team ever mentioned it, the kind of oversight that is not uncommon in the treatment of Black people.Famously, Serena Williams almost died after giving birth to her first child when her concerns were repeatedly dismissed by her healthcare team. It’s possible that’s what happened to me also. During my first prenatal appointment, I asked a provider whether and to what extent the scar tissue present in my uterus and cervix from prior surgeries I’d had to remove uterine tumors, might present a risk. I was told not to worry about it, even though I now know that a cervical cerclage, performed in the second trimester of pregnancy, tends to prevent preterm labor. Was I dismissed, or was it an oversight? Does it matter either way? Mistakes happen, but when they accumulate, as they can for Black women after a lifetime of not being heard, they can be the difference between life and death.

Here I should mention two things. The first is that it is increasingly understood that racism, not race, causes the Rip the queen of rock and roll tina turner 1939-2023 shirt it is in the first place but disparities in maternal health outcomes between Black and white women. It should go without saying, but let me state it anyway: There is nothing intrinsic about Black bodies that would suggest such disparate health outcomes. The second thing I’ll mention: My doctors weren’t racist. The hospital where I gave birth is progressive. In 2020 it launched an anti-racism initiative. It practices race concordant care. During and after my hospital stay I received no fewer than three surveys asking me if, when and how I had experienced racism under their care. And when I was first admitted to the hospital for pregnancy complications, the staff immediately tracked down a Black doctor: a freakishly smart, fresh-out-of-med-school resident with a beautiful bedside manner and a gold-plated resume. No doubt they’d read the research that Black infants are more likely to survive if they have Black doctors. And even though I appreciated the effort, it felt like not quite what I needed. A Black doctor is a great start, I wanted to say, but did we also consider the option where the doctor with 20 years of experience stops being racist long enough to safely deliver my baby?
