Despite many advances we have made over the last decades, black women continue to die in childbirth at rates that seem unbelievable in 2021. We have made medical advances that allow us to do things like open fetal surgery, and yet we continue to measure dramatic differences in both maternal morbidity and mortality, as well as infant mortality, based on race.
