In 2025, Adriana Smith—a Georgia nurse, a mother, a Black woman—suffered a medical crisis that left her brain-dead at 9 weeks pregnant. Instead of honoring her humanity and allowing her family to grieve, she was kept on life support for months without consent, reduced to a vessel under the law.

Black patients are less likely to be treated for pain, offered fertility care, or taken seriously during pregnancy. This is not bias ... it’s racism.
