YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhat happens when political rhetoric about family values clashes with harsh realities? In this compelling video, we examine the troubling rise in infant mortality rates in Mississippi, where healthcare cuts have dire consequences for families. Despite claims from Republican leaders about the importance of having more babies, their policies are failing to protect the most vulnerable among us.
With 57% of births in Mississippi covered by Medicaid, the recent statistics reveal a shocking increase in infant deaths, particularly among Black infants. Dr. Dan Edney, the State Health Officer, calls for urgent action to improve maternal health and access to care. We discuss the leading causes of these tragic losses and the systemic issues that contribute to them, including medical racism and misogynoir.
Join us as we unpack these critical issues and advocate for the changes needed to ensure healthier futures for all families in Mississippi.
