On this week’s episode of Our New South, hosts Kevin Blackistone and Dr. Robert Greene II discuss the disparities in women’s healthcare across the South, the impact of these disparities on women living in the region, and why the South leads the nation in passing legislation that threatens the lives and reproductive health of millions of women.
Our guests on today’s episode are Dr. Nina Ragunanthan, a Gynecologist and Obstetrician based in Mound Bayou, Mississippi, who shares her experiences about working as a doctor in the Mississippi Delta, and the challenges she faces providing quality healthcare to women living one of the poorest regions of the country; and Khenia Haro-Perez, an advocate for Latino women’s healthcare rights in the State of Virginia, who speaks about the role that the state of Virginia plays in providing reproductive healthcare for women across the South, and the challenges that women of color face getting adequate healthcare in the South.
