A Black Indiana mom was sent home from the hospital while in labor and gave birth on the side of the road just minutes later.

This is what systemic neglect looks like. We need oversight, accountability, and care that centers Black birthing people.

Throughout the 1990s, I travelled frequently to the US for business, and met tons of wonderful people along the way: friendly, helpful, respectful people. I was even slightly envious that the US had such a cool President back then.

I miss those days. What the hell happened?
