Racism and reproduction — what black women need to know @kpccinperson Black babies in the United States are far less likely than white babies to reach life's simplest milestones: to form words, to learn to crawl, to take their first steps. That's because black babies born in the United States are two times more likely to die before their first birthday than white babies. The numbers are even worse in Los Angeles, where black babies are three times more likely than white babies to die. Lowering those rates is a priority for local public health officials.

Christmas comes to a close. We wanted to pick a book to read before bed and so we saved our final Christmas gift opening from @literateminds! We won the @literateminds raffle and received their promotional box. We loved opening the box with our 5 year old and 8 year old who were excited to see crayons, pencils, games, and coloring pages. They were really excited to see themselves in box. Loved the personalized coloring pages. In the box: Book: The Color of Us by Karen Katz; Game: Mancala; pencils and crayons; Folder: Reading Guides
