Black women are 3-4 times more likely to die in childbirth in the United States than white, non-Hispanic women. Kira’s death, like as many as 80% of Black maternal deaths, was preventable. Kira’s widower, Charles Johnson, has made Black maternal health his life’s work. — PolitiTweet.org

Charles has led rallies, testified before Congress, lobbied lawmakers, and founded @4Kira4Moms in Kira’s memory. The organization’s mission is to "fight for improved maternal outcomes through advocacy and coalition building." #BlackHistoryMonth #SayBlack — PolitiTweet.org
