JD Vance contradicts Trump, praising “admirable” anti-abortion & IVF laws
Sen. J.D Vance (R-OH) has expressed support for conservative proposals to further restrict abortions and fertility treatments. His support contradicts recent statements made by his Republican presidential running mate, former President Donald Trump, opposing further restrictions on both. Trump’s first presidency rolled back national legal protections for both. Vance voiced support for these restrictions in his foreword to the 2017 Index of Culture and Opportunity, a collection of essays that largely focused on the role of women in modern families. The collection’s 29 essays were written by conservative authors for The Heritage Foundation, the right-wing think tank that later authored Project 2025, a blueprint to help Trump roll back the federal government and civil rights protections. Related JD Vance begs gay billionaire Peter Thiel to fund his & Donald Trump’s campaign The Trump campaign is far behind Harris’ when it comes to fundraising. Could the gay tech mogul bail them out? The collection said the increasing number of single-parent households was on the “wrong track,” Forbes reported. One of the essayists wrote that they’d like abortions to one day become “unthinkable.” Another essay, written by Jennifer Lahl, founder of the anti-abortion Center for Bioethics and Culture Network, said that IVF was harmful to women and criticized women who have children later in life for “spending a large portion of their most fertile years building their careers.” Other essays criticized food stamps and disability benefits programs for incentivizing people not to seek work. Another said that hunger is “a great motivator for people who are able to work to find work.” Your LGBTQ+ guide to Election 2024 Stay ahead of the 2024 Election with our newsletter that covers candidates, issues, and perspectives that matter. Subscribe to our Newsletter today Vance’s foreword to the collection praised the essays as “admirable” for their “willingness to house culture and opportunity under the same intellectual roof.” He also said that “the prevalence of single-parent families” and “declining participation in civic institutions like churches” are destroying “social capital” and upward mobility for America’s middle class. Vance spokesperson Luke Schroeder told The New York Times that Vance “does not agree with every opinion” in the essay collection. The Heritage Foundation also wrote that Vance “had no role in producing or approving the contents” of the 2017 essay collection. Nevertheless, the 2017 essay collection somewhat echoes Vance’s past statements on parents and childbirth. Vance has previously said that “childless cat ladies” — including stepmother Kamala Harris and adoptive father Pete Buttigieg — are determined the country “miserable.” He has said that people without children have “no physical commitment to the future of this country,” and that “postmenopausal females” (that is, women above the age of 50) exist mostly to help raise other people’s children. Vance also wrote the foreword to Dawn’s Early Light: Taking Back Washington to Save America, a book by Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation. In his book, Roberts wrote that contraceptives, IVF and childless individuals have all ruined America. Vance’s foreword compared Democrats and left-leaning liberals togardeners who have poisoned American soil and “wolves” who must be shot dead. Vance also wrote a blurb endorsing Unhumans, a book by anti-LGBTQ+ conspiracy theorist Jack Posobiec which said that liberals aren’t human. The book suggested overthrowing the U.S. government and praised historic dictators who murdered thousands of their own citizens. Trump has recently said he supports abortions beyond six weeks of pregnancy and has said he wants to provide free access to in vitro fertilization (IVF) — a conception method used by many LGBTQ+ families — even though anti-abortion advocates believe that IVF’s discarding of any unused fertilized embryos is “murder.” Trump has only… http://dlvr.it/TCmzrv

Activism
In 1993, Brazil launched one of the first discussions on obstetric violence with the foundation of the Network for the Humanization of Labour and Birth, where the region recognised the circumstances of violence and harassment in care settings (Sadler et al. 2016:50). Then, in 2000, Brazil held the First International Conference for the Humanization of Birth. At the conference, a group of Latin American activists, researchers, and health professionals gathered in response to the high rates of medical intervention in childbirth and growing recognition of abuses directed toward birthing women (Sadler et al. 2016:50). Since then, several Obstetric Violence Observatories have been founded, which, in 2016, released a common statement declaring obstetric violence as one of the “most invisible and naturalized forms of violence against women, constituting a serious violation of human rights” (Sadler et al. 2016:50). 
Since then, the issue of obstetric violence has captured the attention of the WHO. In 2014, the WHO released a statement on the prevention and elimination of disrespect and abuse during facility-based childbirth (Lokugamage and Pathberiya 2017; Sadler et al. 2016). The disrespectful and abusive treatment women in childbirth facilities experience worldwide violates the rights of women. The statement released by the WHO and other organizations call for greater action, dialogue, research, and advocacy on this important human rights and public health issue. The WHO has urged governments and development partners to research, recognize, and redress abusive maternity care (Diaz-Tello 2016:58-61). Some existing organizations and movements include Human Rights in Childbirth (HRIC), the White Ribbon Alliance (WRA) Global Respectful Maternity Care Council, the Respectful Maternity Care (RMC) campaign, and the International MotherBaby Childbirth Organization (IMBCO) (Lokugamage and Pathberiya 2017:2). Collectively, their efforts present opportunities to highlight the institutional injustices and social inequalities which exist and call for broader reform.   
Additionally, social media has become an integral part of the obstetric violence movement, and has become increasingly used by patients as a platform used to exchange views and lobby (Lokugamage and Pathberiya 2017:2). The incorporation of social media may have the capacity to shift the power relationship between patients and healthcare providers. On Facebook, pages such as “Spaces for Healing”, “The Positive Birth Movement”, and “They Said to Me” feature dozens of testimonies from women who were systematically and pervasively distrusted in childbirth. Hashtags such as “BreaktheSilence” and “realEBM” has also offered hundreds of women platforms to share their experiences of bullying, coercion, and unconsented procedures including episiotomies and vaginal examinations during birth (Diaz-Tello 2016:58-57-59). The women who have contributed to those platforms were relatable to each other in the sense that they left their birthing experience feeling betrayed and frightened in addition to the physical challenge of giving birth, and that many of them required therapy or changed the course of their reproductive lives (Diaz-Tello 2016; Lokugamage and Pathberiya 2017). 
Though current activism is an extremely important step to the recognition of the issue of obstetric violence, it is not sufficient. Milli Hill, founder of the Positive Birth Movement, believes there is still a huge amount of polarity in the birth world, including that between women and the medical and legal system, midwives and obstetricians, holistic midwives and obstetric midwives, and doulas and doctors (Lokugamage and Pathberiya 2017:1). The current polarized environment does not create a suitable environment for women to give birth in. Trust has become lacking or is completely lost which has hindered the safety and freedom of birthing individuals.

Allyson Felix Launches Her Own Shoe Company Two Years After Breaking Up With Nike Financially punished by Nike for not meeting performance standards while pregnant, Felix was dropped by Nike in 2019. This is after earning EIGHTEEN Olympic and World medals under Nike. Felix, is the most decorated track and field Olympian in #US. history! Nike wanted to pay her 70 percent less than before the pregnancy. “What I’m not willing to accept is the enduring status quo around maternity. I asked Nike to contractually guarantee that I wouldn’t be punished if I didn’t perform at my best in the months surrounding childbirth. I wanted to set a new standard. If I, one of Nike’s most widely marketed athletes, couldn’t secure these protections, who could? Nike declined. We’ve been at a standstill ever since.” Her company’s first product, the Saysh One sneaker, is available for pre-order on the company’s website; (saysh.com) for $150, consumers can purchase the shoe and a lifetime membership to the “Saysh Collective,” a digital subscription product that will offer perks like workout videos, opportunities to network with other Saysh members and have conversations with Felix and other newsmakers. Felix finished second in the 400m at the US #Olympic #TrackandField trials last Friday, clinching her spot in #Tokyo for 2022. Felix left Nike in 2019 over a dispute about maternity protections for future #Nike-sponsored mothers. The company soon altered its policies to provide additional benefits, and Felix emerged as an advocate for working mothers in sports. She has since raised awareness about health care inequities facing Black mothers, who are three to four times more likely to die during delivery than white mothers. Felix will also be making history as the first athlete in her sport to compete wearing her very own brand. #AllysonFelix is building an empire of her own — and making Nike execs eat their words. 🙌🏾♥️ Salute to #blackgirlmagic @allison_felix_ ✨✨ Sources: TIME, NYTIMES, YAHOOLIFE Kindly #Follow @wonderwombman @wonderwombman2 #wonderwombman For More Informative Content https://www.instagram.com/p/CQlWT5RjinC/?utm_medium=tumblr

Following ISIS’s demise, Islamists around the world have been forced to radically reassess their strategy against the West. Dashing the utopian hopes of its sympathisers, the fall of the Caliphate has set back the Islamist cause for decades. Just as when many Communists became disillusioned once their ideology had been implemented in the Soviet Union, ISIS’s barbarity can no longer be ignored.
True, even in 2021, some groups such as the resurgent Taliban and Boko Haram — to say nothing of the Iranian regime — remain committed to a type of Islamist militancy that includes an emphasis on violence, with all the human suffering that entails. But for the most part, jihadist militancy has proved unpopular among Muslims, often inviting a violent counter-reaction. Its promise of an Islamist dream state has lost its appeal.
Yet Islamists in the West appear to have found a possible solution that sidesteps, at least for now, the use of explicit violence. The core of this alternative strategy is to focus as much as possible on dawa.
Nearly 20 years after 9/11, Westerners still remain unfamiliar with dawa. In theory, the term simply refers to the call to Islam, a kind of invitation; Westerners would recognise it as part of a proselytising mission. In practice, however, Islamists rely on dawa as a comprehensive propaganda, PR and brainwashing system designed to make all Muslims embrace an Islamist programme while converting as many non-Muslims as possible.
Among Western analysts, dawa — which became a tool of the Muslim Brotherhood in the 20th century — has traditionally received far less attention than militant jihad, though observers have emphasised its importance in the “humanitarian” activities of Hamas.
In Unveiled, the ex-Muslim Yasmine Mohammed compellingly describes her difficult marriage to the Egyptian jihadist Essam Marzouk. Yasmine commented on the rivalry that exists between jihadists (such as her ex-husband) and ostensibly “non-violent” Islamists:
“The truth is that Essam hated the [Muslim] Brotherhood: he thought Islamists were a bunch of pansies. He was actually aligned with a more militant group in Egypt called Al Jihad, who were the Egyptian wing of Al Qaeda. Both Islamists and jihadis have the same goal — to spread Islam — but they have different methods. Islamists want to do this through passive means such as politics, immigration and childbirth.”
This important point is often lost on politicians in Western countries. For no matter what misguided retired CIA officials may claim, groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood are neither moderate organisations nor pluralist partners in civil society. Islamist groups are certainly not likely to prevent the radicalisation of young Muslims. Instead, as one observer noted more than a decade ago, “the history of the Brotherhood movement shows, in fact, that it has operated by and large not as a firewall against jihadism, but as a fertile incubator of radical ideas in a variety of locales”.
In a cynical way, Islamists achieve far more through dawa than when they confine themselves to simply blowing things up and stabbing people to death. The threat is not as obvious. Jihad and the use of violence tend to provoke an immediate response. With dawa, on the other hand, it is possible to talk about charity, spirituality and religion — and then compare it to normal religious proselytising missions. In a free society, what reasonable person would take issue with that?
But dawa is also about building networks: local, regional and international. In The Call, Krithika Varagur revealed both the enormous global scale and opaque nature of these efforts. Saudi Arabia, in particular, has channelled billions of dollars into dawa — with much of it directed into the US.
In the West, these regimes are not given much thought, nor is the Islamist infrastructure in the United States. Nonetheless, Islamism is spreading within Western institutions, and it’s largely thanks to an unlikely alliance: dawa has recognised the alluring power of “woke”, and has started to adopt the language of civil rights and multiculturalism.
Of course, this is not an entirely American phenomenon, but the energy in our progressive movement has taken this cooperation one step further. In France, by contrast, “Islamo-gauchisme” (Islamo-Leftism) is much more likely to be correctly identified as a threat to the model of universal, secular and republican citizenship. In Britain, it remains less prominent, confined to fringe politicians such as George Galloway, who believes that “the progressive movement around the world and the Muslims have the same enemies”.
Yet as historian Daniel Pipes has noted, the relationship between Islamism and extreme Leftism is nothing new. In 2007, Oskar Lafontaine, former chairman of Germany’s Social Democratic party, noted: “Islam depends on community, which places it in opposition to extreme individualism, which threatens to fail in the West. [In addition,] the devout Muslim is required to share his wealth with others. The Leftist also wants to see the strong help the weak.”
But the internal tension between “wokeism” and Islamism is never far away. Just look at Al Jazeera, which uploads documentaries about transgender rights on to its social media channel, while broadcasting sermons suggesting husbands should beat their wives on its Arabic station.
Nevertheless, the two movements do share objectives. Both are anti-West and anti-American. Both have a critical attitude towards “capitalism” based on individualism. True, the Islamists have been around for much longer. But Islamist ideologues are willing to co-operate with non-Muslim Leftists as long as it serves their purposes.
To their credit, some on the Left refuse to countenance Islamism, as they become increasingly aware of the contradiction between supporting universal human rights (including women’s rights) and the demands of Islamists. In France, for example, the centre-Left former Prime Minister Manuel Valls courageously denounced Islamo-Leftism without the least hesitation.
In the United States, however, such vocal opposition from the Left is increasingly rare. Indeed, at the 2019 Netroots Nation conference — America’s “largest annual conference for progressives” — multiple panel discussions and training sessions reflected the Islamist agenda, frequently coalescing around a critique of Israel while neglecting the toxic role played by Hamas in perpetuating the conflict. Meanwhile, Linda Sarsour, a feminist organiser and co-chair of the “Women’s March”, has made her support for Islamism more explicit: “You’ll know when you’re living under Shariah law if suddenly all your loans and credit cards become interest-free. Sounds nice, doesn’t it?”
In government, too, Islamism’s capture of progressivism has become increasingly clear. Turkey’s Islamist President Erdogan might lead one of the world’s most brutal and repressive regimes, but that hasn’t stopped Ilhan Omar, the Democratic congresswoman from Minnesota, from expressing support for him. No doubt she was inspired by Erdogan last year when he proclaimed that “social justice is in our book”, and that “Turkey is the biggest opportunity for western countries in the fight against xenophobia, Islamophobia, cultural racism and extremism”.
Erdogan, in effect, was explicitly using progressive rhetoric. It’s a move that’s since been mirrored in Iran. The Tehran Times ­— which describes itself as “a loud voice of the Islamic Revolution” — recently attacked former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo for his “deep-rooted Islamophobia”. And in March, Iranian Foreign Minister Zarif “lauded the determination of Islamic countries to address Islamophobia as one of the main challenges facing the Islamic Ummah [community in the West]”. Islamists, in other words, are becoming skilled at wrapping themselves in a mantle of woke words, while engaging in systematic brutality and repression within their own countries.
To this new alliance between Islamism and progressive rhetoric, there is no simple response. Dawa, by its very nature, is inherently more difficult to fight than jihad. But those who believe, as I do, in a free, open, pluralist society need to be aware of the nature and magnitude of this new challenge. After two decades of fighting Islamist terrorism, we have a new and more subtle foe to contend with. Wokeism has long been regarded as a dangerous phenomenon — but only now are we starting to see why.

Annotated Bibliography: Rough Draft 2
“Racism in Health Care – For Black Women Who Become Pregnant, It's a Matter of Life and Death.” NWLC, 13 Apr. 2018, nwlc.org/blog/racism-in-health-care-for-black-women-who-become-pregnant-its-a-matter-of-life-and-death/.
 The editorial from the National Women Law Center explains the bias and discrimination Black women face when seeking attention from health care professionals. Socioeconomics, age, and educational status are not accounted for when it comes to the consistently low quality of care these women receive. MiQuel Davies develops her argument for African American women based on statistics that prove Black women are three to four times more likely to die during pregnancy or childbirth than white women. The author provides individual cases in which health care providers did not attend to their patients properly leading to further health complications. Davies tries to develop ideas as to why these women are given less attention besides the color of their skin. Lack of health insurance, chronic health conditions, and unhealthy living environments are possible contributing factors to increased mortality among pregnant African American women.
Allan S. Noonan, et al. “Improving the Health of African Americans in the USA: an Overdue Opportunity for Social Justice.” Public Health Reviews, BioMed Central, 3 Oct. 2016, publichealthreviews.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s40985-016-0025-4.
African Americans are the most unhealthy ethnic group in the United States. Racial and social injustice has led to this statistic as well as the overall health care of Black people. The author, Allan Noonan, breaks down African American health into three categories: Social Determinants and Health Inequalities, Morbidity and Mortality and lastly Risk Factors. Racism has led to many social determinants, housing, education, health care access, and income. These stressful life events are detrimental to a person's overall well being as well as his or her genetic makeup. The article examines the health disparities African American people face and the statistics that support the authors claim. Although Blacks overall health is lesser than other races the care they are provided is also worse due to racial bias, stereotyping and clinical uncertainty. The underlying issue to African American health disparity is racism by addressing the issue at the individual level will benefit the overall Black population. Noonan’s article will be beneficial in my research about disparities in healthcare in regard to African American women. 
“How Training Doctors in Implicit Bias Could Save Black Mothers' Lives.” NBCNews.com, NBCUniversal News Group, www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/how-training-doctors-implicit-bias-could-save-lives-black-mothers-n873036.
Intersectionality of being Black and a woman in the United States seems to harm the women’s overall health. Researchers are unsure why. Alia McCants is one of many African American women who had a postpartum health complication, she was thankful the doctors at Mount Sinai Hospital saved her life but how could her near-death experience be avoided? McCants recalls vague information given by her healthcare providers, and little empathy for the pain she was experiencing. Micro-aggressions add up, making Black women feel devalued by their subtle remarks and institutional racism. Implicit- bias training is on the rise, however, in the medical fields, it’s a new concept. African American women feel like a burden when it comes to seeking medical condition, many feel it’s because “bias is in the air.” An implicit- bias, also known as unconscious bias is related to patient-provider interactions, treatment decisions, and the patient's overall health outcome. Implicit bias can be unintentional, however that does not mean that it can’t be reduced or even removed. After review, within my research I can develop the idea how racial/ implicit- bias can be removed by providing doctors and other healthcare professionals with the right technique and information. 
Williams, Serena. “Serena Williams: What My Life-Threatening Experience Taught Me About Giving Birth.” CNN, Cable News Network, 20 Feb. 2018, www.cnn.com/2018/02/20/opinions/protect-mother-pregnancy-williams-opinion/index.html.
Serena Williams went into labor with an emergency C- section which went smoothly. It wasn’t until her shortness of breath post-operation that she alerted the nurses. Due to her family medical history of pulmonary embolism, she did not take the signs lightly. Williams had many complications post-delivery, thankfully she was assertive and made sure she was given the medical attention needed under the circumstances. Her healthcare providers knew exactly how to handle the situation and had the equipment to do so, however not all women are this fortunate. William’s goes on to discuss health complications of infants and how over 80% of infant deaths are preventable yet the medical industry doesn’t have the resources they need to save the lives of the infants. Demanding care for healthy pregnancies and newborns will help ensure fewer infant mortalities and well as health complications for the mothers. Even when accounting for risk factors Black mothers still face a greater risk of harm. Doctors and nurses are disregarding their patient's needs and concerns, the patients are devalued. Black mothers need to be protected, as seen in William’s case, or the numbers of maternal deaths will continue to rise. William’s own story is important in understanding racial bias in healthcare and provides a personalized story. The use of William’s story in my research paper will personal the paper to the audience. 
 Nelson A. (2002). Unequal treatment: confronting racial and ethnic disparities in health care. Journal of the National Medical Association, 94(8), 666–668.
Nelson depicts racial and ethnic disparities in health care through a study to find a major finding of Un-equal Treatment: Confronting Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Health Care. Using these findings can support my claim that racial- bias is present but can be reduced, in the upcoming research paper. The disparities are present even when insurance, income, and age are comparable. The bias, and prejudice the health care providers display contribute to the disparities present in present-day health care facilities. After review, Nelson and his committee were able to analyze and create ways that racial bias can be reduced. Better communication and trust between patient and providers seemed to be vital to reducing the bias among minorities. After the study and analysis of a particular minority group, Nelson was able to state that through better patient education and knowledge on how to access care the disparities can be reduced. As a country as a whole, the study stated that “we” need to do a better job with data collection and assessing the how, when, and why the disparities and racial bias occur, even when it is unintentional.

Annotated Bibliography: Implicit Bias in Healthcare
Annotated Bibliography: Implicit Bias in Healthcare
Annotated Bibliography
By implementing training to inform and give scenarios to healthcare providers can reduce implicit bias and racism in the medical field. Experimental data, health complications, and patient experience display our current day healthcare inequality. Raising awareness of implicit bias nationwide will allow women of color to feel more comfortable, and their concerns will be validated. 
Allan S. Noonan, et al. “Improving the Health of African Americans in the USA: an Overdue Opportunity for Social Justice.” Public Health Reviews, BioMed Central, 3 Oct. 2016, publichealthreviews.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s40985-016-0025-4.
African Americans are the most unhealthy ethnic group in the United States. Racial and social injustice has led to this statistic as well as the overall health care of Black people. The author breaks down African American health into three categories: Social determinants and health inequalities, morbidity, and mortality and lastly risk factors. Racism has led to many social determinants, housing, education, health care access, and income. These stressful life events are detrimental to a person’s overall well being as well as his or her genetic makeup. The article examines the health disparities African American people face and the statistics that support the author’s claim. Although Black’s overall health is lesser than other races the care they are provided is also worse due to racial bias, stereotyping and clinical uncertainty. The underlying issue to African American health disparity is racism by addressing the issue at the individual level can potentially benefit the overall Black population. The article will be beneficial in my research about disparities in healthcare regarding African American women because it provides data and reasoning as to why African American’s health and the care they receive is less than White’s. 
“How Training Doctors in Implicit Bias Could Save Black Mothers’ Lives.” NBCNews.com, NBCUniversal News Group, www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/how-training-doctors-implicit-bias-could-save-lives-black-mothers-n873036.
The intersectionality of being Black and a woman in the United States seems to harm these women’s overall health. Researchers are unsure why however they can use data to hypothesize and it is often concluded that it is due to the color of their skin. Alia McCants is one of many African American women who had a postpartum health complication, she was thankful the doctors at Mount Sinai Hospital saved her life but how could her near-death experience be avoided? McCants recalls vague information given by her healthcare providers, and little empathy for the pain she was experiencing. Micro-aggressions add up, making Black women feel devalued by their subtle remarks and institutional racism. Implicit- bias training is on the rise, however, in the medical fields, it’s a new concept. African American women feel like a burden when it comes to seeking medical condition, many feel it’s because “bias is in the air.” An implicit- bias, also known as unconscious bias is related to patient-provider interactions, treatment decisions, and the patient’s overall health outcome. Implicit bias can be unintentional, however, that does not mean that it can’t be reduced or even removed. After review, within my research, I can develop the idea of how racial/ implicit- bias can be removed by providing doctors and other healthcare professionals with the right technique and information.
“Racism in Health Care – For Black Women Who Become Pregnant, It’s a Matter of Life and Death.” NWLC, 13 Apr. 2018, nwlc.org/blog/racism-in-health-care-for-black-women-who-become-pregnant-its-a-matter-of-life-and-death/.
The editorial from the National Women Law Center explains the bias and discrimination Black women face when seeking attention from health care professionals. Socioeconomics, age, and educational status are not accounted for when it comes to the consistently low quality of care these women receive. The author develops her argument for African American women based on statistics that prove Black women are three to four times more likely to die during pregnancy or childbirth than white women. The author provides individual cases in which health care providers did not attend to their patients properly leading to further health complications. She tries to develop ideas as to why these women are given less attention besides the color of their skin. Lack of health insurance, chronic health conditions, and unhealthy living environments are possible contributing factors to increased mortality among pregnant African American women. 
Randall, Vernella, and Tshaka Randall. “Cutting across the Bias: Teaching Implicit Bias in a Healthcare Law Course.” Saint Louis University Law Journal, no. Issue 3, 2016, p. 511. EBSCOhost, search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=edshol&AN=edshol.hein.journals.stlulj61.28&site=eds-live&scope=site.
The author’s break apart explicit and implicit biases. Explicit can be explained as being aware of your intentions and implicit being unaware, which can make implicit dangerous. Implicit biases tend to lead to discrimination. Understanding the two types of biases and how they can be prevented needs to be studied in healthcare systems. Teaching implicit bias can be done in a class- like structure, allowing students to become comfortable where implicit bias is more prominent can help reduce the bias. Students need to be able to differentiate between race and racism, to avoid the different types of bias. They delve into the inner workings of implicit bias classwork. Assignments to identify stereotypes, race, and racism and overall learning objectives are covered. This kind of work can be useful for my research to develop a hypothesis in ways implicit bias can be resolved. If the course is successful it can correlate with data from other sources.

Williams, Serena. “Serena Williams: What My Life-Threatening Experience Taught Me About Giving Birth.” CNN, Cable News Network, 20 Feb. 2018, www.cnn.com/2018/02/20/opinions/protect-mother-pregnancy-williams-opinion/index.html.
Serena Williams went into labor with an emergency C- section which went smoothly. It wasn’t until her shortness of breath post-operation that she alerted the nurses. Due to her family medical history of pulmonary embolism, she did not take the signs lightly. Williams had many complications post-delivery, thankfully she was assertive and made sure she was given the medical attention needed under the circumstances. Her healthcare providers knew exactly how to handle the situation and had the equipment to do so, however not all women are this fortunate. William’s goes on to discuss health complications of infants and how over 80% of infant deaths are preventable yet the medical industry doesn’t have the resources they need to save the lives of the infants. Demanding care for healthy pregnancies and newborns will help ensure fewer infant mortalities and well as health complications for the mothers. Even when accounting for risk factors Black mothers still face a greater risk of harm. Doctors and nurses continually disregard the patient’s needs and concerns. It does not go unnoticed by those being treated, they begin to feel devalued. Not even their voices are enough to gain healthcare providers’ attention, their lives flash before their eyes. Black mothers need to be protected, as seen in William’s case, or the numbers of maternal deaths will continue to rise. William’s own story is important in understanding racial bias in healthcare and provides a personalized story. The use of William’s experience in my research paper is to personalize the paper to the audience. Displaying William’s effect of racial bias will hopefully reduce racial bias for future African American women. If doctors are willing to unconsciously risk tennis star, Serena William’s life, why wouldn’t they do it to the average person? 
Tumblr media
Reflection: The purpose of the project I created was to inform and summarize websites and articles that correlate with my topic. All of my sources are academic and informative. They all relate to implicit bias in healthcare, whether it be describing a real-life situation or statistics regarding health complications. My project achieves this based on my reviews and summaries of the websites. They are informative and describe the importance of implicit bias in healthcare. The audience of my project is the general public, I think it is important if everyone is aware of this issue in our healthcare. My medium allows for all ages to access my annotated bibliography by being posted on the blog. The purpose of the blog was to allow for all to read it. Tumblr has a variety of topics, and I felt health-related topics fit the website well. I chose to use a blog, pictures, and a GIF from Tumblr. I enjoyed using these forms of multimodality because it was unique but also enhanced my project. My final choice for choosing a blog was that a variety of people will have the ability to read it. My post can also be shared and liked which can popularize and gain importance to the subject. I enjoyed choosing Tumblr because it was relatable to other social media websites that I use, overall it is very user-friendly. I enjoyed that they create their own GIFS that all users can incorporate into their own posts. The most difficult aspect of Tumblr was trying to keep the format the same as my word document. I enjoyed writing the annotated bibliography because I was familiar with the format. I felt like the readings helped with the final project and the peer review helped me prioritize my sources.

The Women’s Giving Fund has awarded $20,000 to local organizations supporting the needs of women and children.
Since its inception in 2018, the Women’s Giving Fund at the Inland Empire Community Foundation has given $60,000 in grants to nonprofit groups that benefit women and families in the Inland Empire.
The fund was launched by a diverse group of professional women who wanted to build a welcoming and inclusive network of female donors. Together, the women sought to discover more about the local challenges of women’s economic security. As a group, the women could focus their giving on issues challenging women and children and have a larger effect by pooling together their donations to make more impactful gifts.

(Courtesy of Inland Empire Community Foundation)
“Your heart fills with the opportunity to help women in the region,” fund committee Chair Nefertiti Long said. “For $100, a small donation, you can be part of the process.”
Donors who give $100 or more to the fund can nominate nonprofit organizations to be considered for grants. These organizations are vetted by foundation, ensuring donors can be confident their gift will make a difference. These nominations are then pared down to a smaller list by the committee and voted on by all who have given at this level or above.
This year’s grant presentation event took place Aug. 19 on the rooftop of the Riverside Art Museum. The event was attended by donors as well as grantees, who gave touching presentations about the work they are doing.
The 2021 Women’s Giving Fund awardees were:
•Society of Extraordinary Women, $10,000
•Time for Change, $5,000
•Corona Life Services, $5,000
The Society of Extraordinary Women works to better the lives of young girls, helping them build leadership skills, gain self-esteem and investigate career possibilities. The organization also provides mentoring after graduation. The award will be used to hire two part-time GIS instructors and to buy additional software.
Time for Change Foundation assists homeless women and children with housing and supportive services in response to the housing crisis, mass incarceration and family separation. It helps clients achieve self-sufficiency through evidence-based programs and strives to help women become leaders who can advocate for the change they want to see. The grant will be used for its Housing and Family Reunification Program.
Corona Life Services is a non-profit Christian organization that offers physical, emotional and spiritual support to women and men surrounding unplanned pregnancies. This includes pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, options education, referrals for medical services and childbirth classes. The organization also offers a grief recovery program to individuals who have suffered a pregnancy loss. Funding will be used for its Holistic Health Resilience Program.
The fund welcomes new donors to help continue the grants and to increase its ability to support local organizations. Those who join can learn about philanthropy, its impact and make a larger difference with the level of support with which they are comfortable. Donors also learn about the work of nonprofit groups.

Jennifer Ford of Oakham, Mass., went through serious postpartum depression after her second pregnancy. She got help from her obstetrician after he connected with a statewide program that supports doctors.
Kieran Kesner for NPR
As a young woman, Jennifer Ford struggled with anxiety and depression. When she got pregnant, her physician advised her to stay on the antidepressant she took to manage her symptoms.
Her first pregnancy and childbirth went smoothly, she says, but things were different after she gave birth the second time. “It’s when I hit my wall,” Ford says.
She remembers feeling overcome by grief immediately after she got home.
“I couldn’t even communicate a full sentence about how I was feeling,” recalls Ford. “All I could do was cry.”
She couldn’t eat, sleep or take care of her newborn.
One afternoon, she was in her bedroom trying to take a nap but couldn’t fall asleep — she felt overwhelmed by her emotions. “I wanted to take all of my pain meds and go to bed,” she says. She wanted to put an end to her suffering.
Instead, she went into the kitchen and told her husband how she felt. “That was when he was like ‘OK, obviously something needs to change here. We’re going to get help. And we’re going to get it now.’ ”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Her husband made an appointment with her OB-GYN, Dr. Christopher Conlan.
“She came in and I could immediately see in her face that she was having a very difficult time,” Conlan remembers. “She needed help and didn’t know where to turn.”
Conlan gave Ford a standard depression questionnaire that confirmed that she had postpartum depression.
But he was at a loss as to how to treat her. Like most OBs, he wasn’t trained to provide mental health care.
“At that point, the tools I have in my everyday practice were used,” he recalls.

The story could have ended there. Around the country, an estimated 1 in 7 pregnant women and new mothers becomes clinically depressed during pregnancy or postpartum. But their primary points of contact in the medical system — their obstetricians — often lack the skills to address this common problem. As a result, few women get a diagnosis or treatment. According to one study, less than 20% of women get treated.
Luckily for Ford, her doctor had another resource to turn to. Recognizing the importance of the obstetrician’s relationship with pregnant patients and new moms, a statewide program in Massachusetts offers support to obstetricians and gynecologists in screening for and treating depression in pregnant women and new moms.
“Every time a woman is seen by an obstetrics provider it is an opportunity to detect depression, educate them about it and to really engage them in treatment,” says psychiatrist Nancy Byatt at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. Byatt helped launch a program called the Massachusetts Child Psychiatry Access Program for Moms, or MCPAP for Moms.
Tumblr media
Nancy Byatt, founding medical director of MCPAP for Moms, says she developed the program after doctors told her they didn’t know how to help pregnant and new moms recover from depression, and that they needed a “lifeline” to support them.

MCPAP for Moms holds training sessions and provides a toolkit for physicians, midwives and nurse practitioners in obstetrics practices across the state to help them identify symptoms of depression in pregnant and new moms. It also runs a helpline for practitioners to connect with psychiatrists for advice on their patients’ symptoms and treatment.
So that day when Ford needed help, Conlan called the help line and got connected to an on-call psychiatrist. Before Ford left his office that day, he had set up help for her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Since the program launched in 2014, “we’ve enrolled 74% of [OB] practices in the state, and that covers 80% of the deliveries,” says Byatt.
And the program is the model for a national plan to address maternal mental health as part of the 21st Century Cures Act. Seven states, including Florida, Kansas and Louisiana, have received funding through the act to develop programs modeled after the one in Massachusetts.
The states of Washington and Wisconsin already have similar programs in place.
A lifeline for doctors
Women like Ford who have a history of depression have a higher risk of depression during pregnancy or after giving birth, what’s known as perinatal depression.
Untreated perinatal depression affects not just the mother’s health, but also her baby’s and her entire family’s social and emotional well-being. It can increase the risk of premature birth and low birth weight babies. And when a new mom is depressed, it affects her ability to take care of her baby and bond with it. That in turn can affect the baby’s physical and emotional development and even puts the baby at a higher risk of having mental health problems later in life.
And there is a cost to not treating perinatal depression, says Dr. Tiffany Moore Simas, an associate professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Massachusetts Medical School and the director of engagement with MCPAP for Moms.
One study estimated that untreated perinatal anxiety and mood disorders cost the state of California $2.4 billion for all births in 2017, when mother-infant pairs were followed for five years.
Despite the health care costs associated with untreated perinatal depression, a program like MCPAP for Moms is still rare. Ideally, pregnant women and new mothers with depression would have access to a psychiatrist, says Byatt. But there’s a shortage of mental health care providers in the country — finding a provider and getting a timely appointment can be difficult and frustrating, especially when someone’s depressed. Besides, the stigma around this kind of depression prevents women from seeking help.
For all these reasons, Byatt says medical authorities, including the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, recommend that OB-GYNs screen their patients for depression and help them get treatment.
When Byatt began her initial research into perinatal depression, she started conversations with OBs in the state to see if they were screening women. She quickly learned that most doctors did not feel comfortable screening, even though they wanted to help.
“They said ‘We want to address this. We think it’s so important. We don’t know what to do. We haven’t been trained, we don’t have the resources,’ ” Byatt recalls.
Dr. David Klein, an OB-GYN in Shrewsbury, Mass., says he first began screening pregnant and postpartum women for depression about 12 years ago. “But it was more sporadic then,” says Klein. “I kind of used it when I thought someone was having an issue [with depression].”
But, he says, it wasn’t easy, because he wasn’t trained to provide mental health care. If one of his patients screened positive for perinatal depression, “the issue became ‘OK, now what do I do?’ ” he says. “To find someone to help me help her was very difficult.”
Klein would have to make multiple calls to find a psychiatrist who was taking new patients and would accept his patient’s insurance.
“It became a lot of effort on my part to find someone,” says Klein. “Fortunately, over the years I found a small network I could use, but still, it was an effort to connect with those people and make sure the patient is being taken care of.”
When Byatt spoke to OBs during her initial research, they told her they would be more willing to screen and treat perinatal depression if they had more training and support.
” ‘We need a lifeline’ is essentially what they said,” says Byatt.
How it works
Byatt and her colleagues at the University of Massachusetts Medical School set out to create that lifeline. They launched the help line for doctors, held training sessions and provided a toolkit to educate physicians and nurse practitioners about perinatal depression and how to treat it.
A doctor who has a patient who screens positive for perinatal depression and who is not sure how to treat her can call the help line at 1-855-Mom-MCPAP (1-855-666-6272) Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., for a phone consultation with a psychiatrist. The goal is that “one of our psychiatrists will call them back within 30 minutes,” says Byatt. “We essentially hold their hand and help them figure out how to help the patient.”

When necessary, the psychiatrist does one-on-one consultation with the patient within a week or two. And the program’s resource and referral specialist helps the patient find a longer-term mental health care provider — it can be for individual or group therapy sessions — and support groups close to her.
While the help line was created primarily for obstetrics providers, it is also open to pediatricians, primary care providers and even other psychiatrists. “Any provider from the state who’s serving a pregnant and postpartum woman can call our program,” says Byatt.
The program is funded by the Massachusetts Department of Mental Health. However, insurance companies are required by state law to pay part of the annual cost of the program, depending on how many of their clients use it, says Dr. John Straus, the founding director of the Massachusetts Child Psychiatry Access Program, which provided the blueprint for MCPAP for Moms and was designed to increase access to pediatric mental health care in the state.
They usually cover about 50% of annual costs, adds Byatt.
Until recently, the annual budget for MCPAP for Moms was about $850,000, says Byatt. In 2018, the program received an additional $175,000 annually to expand services for substance abuse disorders among pregnant women and new mothers. The program currently runs on $1 million per year, or about $1.16 per month for every woman served, notes Byatt.
A shift in attitudes
The help line has been a game changer for his practice, says Klein, the obstetrician in Shrewsbury, Mass. “I’ll speak to a psychiatrist within two hours. We’ll talk about the case, make a plan and the patient will be taken care of.”
These days, he screens his patients regularly for perinatal depression. “To me it’s like any other screening we do now,” says Klein. “I’m very comfortable talking to women about their mental health.”
This is true of OB practices across the state, says Moore Simas.
“We’re finding that OBs are willing to prescribe drugs under the direction of our perinatal psychiatrist, during the time a patient is waiting to get to see a psychiatrist,” she says.

And they have become increasingly comfortable treating more complex mental health issues in their patients, adds Byatt.
“We have several practices [where] if a patient has bipolar disorder, they’re managing it, because it’s hard to find a psychiatrist,” she says.
And the change in attitude among physicians has raised awareness among women and broken down some of the stigma, says Klein.
“Patients don’t feel embarrassed anymore … to talk about it,” he says. “They are very comfortable starting medication and they’re very comfortable seeing a counselor.”
Conlan, too, has noticed a shift in attitudes among his patients.
“Patients are now realizing that this is a very common issue, that they are not alone. And that it’s better to speak up and we can help,” he says. “They don’t need to suffer in silence.”
“There were people on my team”
After her second baby was born, Ford didn’t even consider the possibility that she might be depressed and needed help, even though she’d experienced depression before and received treatment for it.
“It’s very hard to admit that something’s not right … when you have a new baby in the house,” she says. “It’s supposed to be this wonderful happy time, and that’s not how it was.”
But when she went in to meet with Conlan, her physician, and he got hold of an on-call psychiatrist, the psychiatrist recommended that Conlan prescribe Ford a different antidepressant, and he made an appointment to see her in a couple of weeks.
By the time she left Conlan’s office, Ford says she felt heartened by all the support. “I really felt like there were people on my team,” she says, “that I wasn’t alone in my room, feeling like I was a horrible person and a horrible mom.”
MCPAP for Moms also connected her with a social worker, who helped her find a longer-term therapist and a local support group for moms with postpartum depression.
The changes in medication, the visit with the psychiatrist, the support group of mothers — all of it helped her manage her depression and eventually recover. She began to feel better within a couple of weeks.
“I was taking the time to blow-dry my hair, simple things,” she recalls. “I was taking the time to sweep the floor, or to put my makeup or wear something other than pajama pants.”
And she was starting to take care of her baby girl and bond with her.

Oscars 2021: Ignore the Cynics, the Ceremony is Already a Win
https://ift.tt/3dI3ynK
There was a time when folks wondered if there even would be an Oscars in 2021. It’s easy to forget this now. After all, 12 months suddenly feels like several lifetimes, and the anxiety which accompanied theaters going dark in March 2020 was replaced by abject schadenfreude when one studio tried to open a blockbuster six months later. But the state of the industry—from theatrical releases to streaming, to, yes, awards shows—was shrouded in uncertainty for what seemed like an eternity.
Apprehension even seemed to reach the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences when they announced last June that the next Oscars ceremony would be held on April 25, 2021—the latest calendar date ever for the show since they began broadcasting on television in 1953. Yet with theaters still closed and a second wave then imminent, some speculated… would the show really go on?
“There was a time when it looked like no films were being released at all, even on streaming, much less in theaters,” TCM host Dave Karger tells me when we sit down to discuss Oscar history, and the kind of history that’s now being made by the 93rd Annual Academy Awards. “I was worried that they were going to do away with the Oscars or just postpone it for even more months. And then, once I realized there was actually going to be a telecast and be a ceremony, my larger concern was that there weren’t going to be many movies at all that were eligible.”
It was a common concern. It also luckily turned out to be unfounded. In 2021, there were more films eligible for Oscar nominations than ever before, and Karger personally argues the year’s eight Best Picture nominees—including Nomadland, Promising Young Woman, and Mank—are as good or better than any lineup he can recall from the past decade.
All of which is worth keeping in mind ahead of Sunday night’s Oscar ceremony. Steven Soderbergh, the Oscar winning director of Contagion and Ocean’s 11, has even been making the rounds to remind audiences the night is as much a celebration for the movies that did come out and captivate during the COVID era as it is a chance to applaud award winners. “Joyous” is the word the Traffic director used to describe the tone of Sunday night. But then, he may be feeling the need to preempt the cynics who’ve already come out ahead of the Oscars with knives drawn.
Indeed, there’s been a growing wave of cynicism about this year’s nominees, perhaps most loudly articulated by Bill Maher, the iconoclast host of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher. Recently on that program, Maher criticized the Academy and industry for nominating only “downers,” taking special aim at spoiling Nomadland, Minari, and Promising Young Woman for potential audiences while noting their subject matters are too depressing to be popular with mainstream audiences.
Karger, who notes he’s a fan of Maher and would love to see him appear on TCM again, disagrees with this assessment.
“I think it’s very easy to cherry pick aspects of some of these films,” says Karger. “What’s hard about this year’s Oscars is that—and this happens a lot of the time, but particularly this year—the movies are on the sad side. You could even say somewhat depressing, although I think they’re also uplifting. But if you just hear the subject matter of some of the nominated films—a woman who loses her baby in childbirth; a man suffering with dementia; a young man who loses his hearing suddenly and catastrophically; a woman who loses her job and is forced to live in her van—I can imagine that to a casual moviegoer it would make them want to tear their hair out.”
He continues, “But I think if you actually watch the movies, there’s a lot more to them than just the initial description. The fact of the matter is these films did provide a lot of us with some happiness and some escapism during a time when we largely were sitting at home. So if the Oscars can feel even more celebratory and joyful than they already usually do, I think they’re serving their purpose.”
As for the point of there not being any “popular” movies nominated for Best Picture, Karger is quick to point out that these movies didn’t come out in a vacuum; there were still action movies on Netflix, Kaiju flicks on HBO Max, and Coming 2 America on Amazon. He also reminds us that Hollywood studios were delaying films intended to have populist and prestige crossover appeal—movies like Dune or Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story remake—out of 2020.
Says Karger, “If there are some people decrying the fact that no blockbusters were nominated at the Oscars this year, I would just say, well, there weren’t that many to choose from. There wasn’t a Black Panther or a Once Upon a Time in Hollywood or Lord of the Rings or an Avatar to anoint.” Not that he necessarily minds. As he’s quick to also say, “I don’t think you can look at a single Best Picture nominee this year and say that it doesn’t deserve to be there.”
Oscars, and the type of movies nominated for them, are things Karger has long been passionate about. A self-described lifelong “Oscar nerd,” Karger was studying the intricacies of the races and changing Academy dynamics well before becoming the Academy’s official red carpet greeter in 2012 and 2013, where he acted as the red carpet’s first welcoming voice (with a microphone) to nominees and presenters. Since then he’s become a Turner Classic Movies host, appearing on the cable network as presenter and historian to recount Hollywood days gone by, including during the network’s annual 31 Days of Oscar.
Perhaps unsurprisingly then, 31 Days of Oscar is Karger’s favorite recurring series on TCM, and one that’s allowed him to appreciate parallels between the Oscars during COVID and previous ceremonies held in times of crisis.
“I do think there are some parallels [with the World War II years],” Karger says, “where there were similar discussions had. ‘Should there be a ceremony? And if we have one, what should be different about it? What are the optics of having an Oscar ceremony at all in a time of crisis?’ Of course the difference is that in 1942, the question was more what does it look like and what does it feel like for us to be having this celebratory event? Whereas in 2021, the question is, is it physically safe to have this event?”
Still, the solutions remain strikingly familiar. As Karger adds, “I think the fact that you’re seeing the ceremony be completely reinvented and rethought definitely reminds me of what did happen in 1942 where the Oscar ceremony was scaled down and formal dress was discouraged, and it wasn’t the show it normally was. It was a quieter affair.”
As for the actual awards themselves, Karger is thrilled two of his favorite movies of the year, Sound of Metal and The Father, were able to be the “surprise” nominees for Best Picture. Although, much like everyone else, he thinks it’s improbable anything stops Nomadland from winning Best Picture.
“I think there’s a slight chance that something like Minari or The Trial of the Chicago 7 could win,” Karger says, “but the operative word there is slight. I don’t see Nomadland losing. I think it’s going to do very well with multiple awards, including Best Picture and Director.”
The Best Actress category, however, has never seemed more open in all Karger’s years of Oscar-watching.
“I was trying to think about [a time] where you had four different people who won the Critics Choice, the Golden Globe, the BAFTA, and the SAG Award,” Karger considers, referring to how each of the major proceeding awards have gone, respectively, to Carey Mulligan, Andra Day, Frances McDormand, and Viola Davis. “I don’t know if that’s ever happened before.”

With that said, Karger suspects the SAG and BAFTA winners are the best indicators for the Oscars, as they’re the only ones with a significant number of voting members also in the Academy.
“A few weeks ago, I was more bullish on Carey Mulligan’s chances for Best Actress,” he says. “Now I feel like it’s more between Viola Davis and Frances McDormand, with Carey Mulligan as a possible Adrian Brody-style spoiler.”
Meanwhile Karger has 31 Days of Oscar at TCM to get him through the anticipation of Sunday night, and well past it. Usually held in the month of February (and part of March), the TCM series is now spread across the whole of April. It’s an exciting time for hosts like Karger, as it’s an opportunity to widen the tent a little with what plays on the network. Their “bread and butter” remains Hollywood’s Golden Age from the 1930s through the 1960s, but 31 Days of Oscar allows them to also show movies from as recently as a few years ago, as seen with Carol (2015) or Nebraska (2013). Yet it still leaves room for Singin’ in the Rain to play on Sunday night at 6pm EST, ahead of the Oscar telecast for those so inclined.
Traditionally, 31 Days of Oscar has also been a time where the network could get highly creative with its programming, such as when each Oscar nominated film TCM aired shared an actor with the film proceeding it on the line-up. “It’s a whole Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon game for a month,” Karger laughs. But in 2021? The layout is clean and to the point: the movies are being aired in alphabetical order.
“This year, it’s probably as simple as you can get, alphabetical,” Karger explains. “Because why not? The world is very complex right now. So why shouldn’t there be one thing that’s easy? And that’s 31 Days of Oscar.” Still, he adds with a chuckle, the programmers managed to ensure that Easter Parade played on Easter.
“It was the primetime spot on Easter Sunday at eight o’clock,” Karger points out. “So my hat is off to them, as it always is.”
After a year like 2020, that also is probably worth a standing ovation.

My pet has a pre-existing condition – how can I lower the cost of my insurance?
My pet has a pre-existing condition – how can I lower the cost of my insurance? When I go online, I find out the best way to lower the cost of my insurance. First, I m going to show you how to calculate our rate. We would have 4-5% (one person?) for an $80,000 policy. As you can see, it is less expensive than all of our other cars, like , and a Porsche 911, but, we don t want to have any accidents or at least no accidents with our car (the Porsche 911’s sticker on its dashboard seems to be the same one on the Porsche 911). I am going to show you one method of estimating the cost of auto insurance. Another is a bit more difficult – but you ll need to be a top name at predicting cost, I would tell you for the price of insurance.

The same holds true for pets in the event your vet has a health condition that could prevent you from getting a full treatment contract. These types of claims can be very expensive, especially if they aren’t very general. If you have a dog, you could be looking at an increase of $100,000 or more from your health insurance company. When you purchase an HSE pet policy, it’s not just overpriced. It’s also not just overpriced. You’re choosing a company that might not even be in the top 10, either. If you think there may be a chance that your vet could come back after you’ve had any sort of adverse health condition, it’s definitely worth the investment. You might not need an SSA card at all,.
