MISTREATMENT OF BLACK MOM IN ACTIVE LABOUR- Dallas, Texas
"I'm going to link to this video in which a Black woman in active labor is being ignored by a nurse who apparently thinks getting through the hospital check-in process is more important than administering to the mother and baby about to be born (the infant was born 12 minutes after this video was taken). The Black obgyn who is commenting does a great job explaining why what this nurse did was so wrong and linking the nurse's neglect to the way Black women have worse outcomes than other racial groups in the U.S.
It's pretty traumatic to watch (both mother and baby survive), but it's important to see I believe. I'm so glad the person accompanying the mom recorded this because I'm sure that without video evidence she would be dismissed as overreacting if she files a complaint (which I hope she does)
