The Tragic Death of Olympian Tori Bowie Sheds Light on Pregnancy Crises Faced by Black Women.

The death of Olympian Tori Bowie, a Black woman who suffered fatal complications of pregnancy and childbirth, has highlighted the ongoing crisis of Black maternal health in the US. Black women are twice as likely to suffer serious complications during pregnancy and three times as likely to die, regardless of income or education. Bowie's story has prompted calls for action to address the systemic racism and mistreatment that Black women face in the medical establishment, as well as the need for better mental health support for pregnant women.
