PRE-ORDER: Sorority of Bereaved Mothers: poems and stories from Black Women on pregnancy loss and infertility (HARDCOVER)

A tender embrace, a guttural cry, a fragile surrender from Black women who have experienced pregnancy loss and infertility in 'Sorority of Bereaved Mothers.' 

This compelling collection features a range of heartfelt poems and stories, shedding light on the profound struggles of Black women in the face of both voluntary and involuntary pregnancy challenges.

Black women face a significantly higher risk of miscarriage compared to their counterparts, reflecting a deep-seated healthcare disparity. In the United States, Black mothers tragically experience maternal mortality rates three to four times higher than white mothers, highlighting one of the most alarming racial health disparities.

This anthology explores the unfiltered and authentic journeys of Black women as they navigate healthcare systems that fall short, confront intense emotional turmoil, and contemplate if a path to acceptance is possible or necessary. Explore the powerful narratives that echo the sentiment that, for Black women, the impact of healthcare professionals can be as pivotal as that of law enforcement for Black men.
