Black Maternal Health Week begins

Thursday marks the beginning of Black Maternal Health Week. It's a time to raise awareness and take action to improve the health of Black mothers. According to the CDC, Black women are three times more likely to die from a pregnancy-related cause than white women. Dr. Erica Canales, the Director of Perinatal Services at Kaiser Permanente Oakland Medical Center, joined us on 'The Nine' to talk about the troubling statistics and what's being done to change the narrative.
