Posted @withregram • @motherofscarletts What is the Black Maternal Mortality Rate in Canada? ⁠⁠
🚫 We don't know. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
What is the Black infant Mortality Rate in Canada? ⁠⁠
🚫 We have evidence to believe it is similar to the rate in the USA but still, we don't know. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
How many Black children are born each year in Canada? ⁠⁠
🚫 We don't know. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
How many children are born to Black birth parents each year in Canada? ⁠⁠
🚫 We don't know. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
‼️But why don't we know??‼️⁠⁠
⁠⁠
There are two possible answers here. Either A) The Canadian government does not believe there is a reason to collect race disaggregated data because there is "no racism in Canada, and all Canadians have the same outcomes regardless of race". Or B) The Canadian government knows EXACTLY what they will find if they were to start collecting and reporting on this data and don't want us to know exactly how dire the situation is. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
If the Canadian government has nothing to hide they should be collecting and reporting on the appropriate maternal and infant mortality and morbidity rates of not only Black people but also Indigenous and other POC. This list should be inclusive of Canadians AND those who live here but are not of Canadian nationality. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Any Black person, Indigenous person, Immigrant, Permanent resident, Refugee, and other POC will tell you Canada still has work to do. Without these numbers, Canada will continue to turn us away and pretend our issues aren't real. This is inexcusable. We must demand more of our government. ⁠⁠

It’s no secret we are a big fan of @moonsproutdo

It’s no secret we are a big fan of @moonsproutdoula and we encourage you to check out her Insta and the Insta of • @bacupnorthnwt who highlighted her work through their NWT Black-owned Businesses Series: Moon Sprout Birthwork, Owner: Sabrina Flack

Sabrina Flack is the founder and owner of Moon Sprout Birthwork established in February 2020. Moon Sprout Birthwork offers a variety of virtual and in-person doula services. Sabrina is a certified birth and postpartum doula and has been practicing since July 2019. Her role includes being a support person to the client, their partner and their families by teaching comfort measures for labour and birth, providing informational support about the birthing process and hospital interventions, and providing knowledge about their rights in the birth room. More than anything, she provides emotional support for her clients, creating safe and non-judgemental spaces to process fears, worries and concerns about birth and parenting.Sabrina has also incorporated a sliding scale to make her services more accessible to everyone but prioritizes people who experience oppression, such as Indigenous, Black, Trans and Queer populations. As a doula, her practice is inclusive, anti-racist and culturally sensitive.

Today, we celebrate Sabrina and Moon Sprout Birthwork. For more information visit Moon Sprout Birthwork’s website at https://moonsprout.ca/birthdoula.
