Black women are 3x times as likely to die because of pregnancy-related complications than their white counterparts. As we begin Black Maternal Health Week, we must ensure Black women get the care they deserve throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum.

On this day in 1965, Vivian Malone became the 1st black students to graduate from the University of Alabama in it's 134 years of existence. In 1963, Alabama Governor George Wallace physically blocked Vivian and James Hood, two black students, from enrolling in the University.

First week as a Classical Heme fellow ✅ It’s imperative that we highlight spaces we occupy and this week was a testament to that. The Classical Heme faculty are awesome here at Yale Hematology Oncology Fellows ❤️ Making this GA raised girl right at home!

Another Albany, GA legend and Spelman alumna has transitioned. 💔 My grandmother would tell me stories of how the Civil Rights Movement impacted our city and the importance of how singing shared our stories. Our songs and tributes ring even louder today in her honor. 💙

VERY exciting work being done by FWGBD & I am so glad to be representing Yale School of Medicine Yale Hematology Oncology Fellows this year! Women and girls with blood disorders, especially SCD, deserve to have adequate and equitable care throughout their lifespan & we are here to support them! #FWGBD24

With 75% percent of annual sickle cell disease cases occurring in Sub-Saharan Africa, families there need access to newborn screening & clinical care to avoid painful complications & early mortality. How ASH CONSA is helping: ow.ly/421B50Tr55G #SickleCellAwarenessMonth

While applying to med school, a school dean told my close mentor I couldn’t be taught bc I had taken the MCAT three times. Ten years later, I passed every exam + *BOARD CERTIFIED* Internal Med doc + in Heme fellowship. Never let labels determine what you achieve! #BlackDocStories

It’s taken me all day to speak, but that’s because I’ve felt gutted. As a Black woman from the South, who has faced racism, I truly am scared. Nothing prepares you for such a loss when you are overqualified but still rejected by the majority. We are TIRED of this rhetoric.
