This week is Black Maternal Health Week — and Black women are still being ignored, dismissed, and disrespected, especially during pregnancy and childbirth.
Over 80% of these deaths didn’t have to happen. This is your reminder to listen to Black women.
Here is everything Dawn Staley had to say today about Geno Auriemma, his statement, and her perspective:
"No distractions at this time... I grew up in the projects of North Philly. 215, 267 area code. Nothing can derail us, or me, from staying with the task at hand."

"The day the Latino, African-American, and Asian realize they share the same oppressor is the day we start winning.
We are the majority now."

Small farmers pushed out.
Black farmers shut out.
Power consolidated.
This is Donald Trump’s America: reward the connected, erase everyone else.
