Season 1 Episode 3: Dr Mimi Niles on birthing bodies

Birthing and Justice with Dr Ruth De Souza

Synopsis: Dr Mimi Niles has described healthcare as a very large, vast, deeply problematic institution. The New York-based midwife and academic grew up in Queens, New York to immigrant parents and this experience has led to the belief that every sort of disparity and inequity plays itself out in the bodies of Black people in the United States.
