I love this as an example of a community looking after itself. The clinics are there to help address disparities in Black women's health.

So this is a hospital with black staff that makes black women feel more comfortable? I wasn't sure if it was just cultural or if they are more prepared for conditions that overwhelmingly impact black people, whether due to genetic or social conditions black people live in (including more disregard from white doctors). Anyone know more about these medical racial disparities and how to target them?

I know nothing beyond what's in the original article, unfortunately.
