‘Doulas on Duty’ in this Pandemic, Tonight on Conversations Of A Sistah

The ReadyWriter

Can you imagine being pregnant and due to give birth during this global pandemic?

Having a baby during a pandemic presents its own challenges. And knowing that the United States has the highest maternal mortality rate of any wealthy nation, is something to be concerned about. Especially when you have the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention still saying it doesn’t know how the disease impacts pregnancy and babies.

States and hospitals have mandated fathers cannot be present when the mother gives birth and have minimized them even during routine doctor visits. When you think about the worry of remaining healthy in the midst of this global pandemic, the thought of giving birth in spite of it all can be quite frightening.

Aside from partners, doulas can also offer support virtually during labor and delivery. Meanwhile, pregnant people and new parents are working to cope with this new reality. Despite the many challenges posed by the current crisis, though, many doctors, doulas, and others who work with people giving birth are doing their best to make sure families are still supported.

We hope you’ll tune into the Conversation at 6:30 p.m. EST for our topic of discussion ‘Doulas on Duty‘ in this Pandemic on tonight’s Conversations Of A Sistah. Our special guest in the studio is Ann Marie Pusterla, Doula, (pictured left) Founder and CEO of “Love your Labor“

Hope you’ll tune into this interesting conversation!

How did Black People become the face of CoVid-19 – Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

This week, the U.S. joined nations around the world in instituting sweeping emergency measures to further combat the corona-virus pandemic. In an attempt to slow the spread of COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus, schools and universities are shut down, and concerts and convention centers across the globe have been closed and cancelled. And now public health advocates are saying African Americans are at a greater risk of death from corona virus.

For a whole host of economic, political and historical reasons, Georges C. Benjamin, executive director of the American Public Health Association, says it’s a threat that African Americans need to take particularly seriously.

Join us at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” here on Blog Talk Radio as we ask the question: “How did Black People become the face of CoVid-19?” Our host will address suggestions to combat these statistics at any rate.

Corona Virus Reigns, so who’s to blame? Tonight’s Topic on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

BEIJING, CHINA – JANUARY 30: Chinese children wear plastic bottles as makeshift homemade protection and protective masks while waiting to check in to a flight at Beijing Capital Airport on January 30, 2020 in Beijing, China.

In the past three weeks since declaring the corona virus a national emergency, President Donald Trump has delivered a dizzying array of rhetorical contortions, sowed confusion and repeatedly sought to cast blame on others. He has faulted governors for acting too slowly, the democrats by claiming it’s a hoax and China because after-all, it’s their virus.

America is winning its war on corona-virus, the president says — yet the death toll is still rising, and in the best case scenario more Americans will die than in the wars fought in Vietnam, Korea, Afghanistan and Iraq combined.

Instead of real leadership from the current administration, all we’re hearing and seeing is a COMMANDER OF CONFUSION!! This president continues to sow uncertainty and seeks to cast blame in the midst of this deadly crisis.

Join us at 6:30 p.m. EST for this weeks conversation, “Corona Virus Reigns – so who’s  to Blame?”

We will be taking your calls in the studio at 516-595-8098, hope to meet you on the air!!

“No Respect – Teacher vs. Student” – Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

A Maryland teacher (pictured above), was arrested and booked into the county jail after she was caught on video fighting a student in her classroom.

The teacher, Vivian Noirie, 36, was charged with child abuse and assaulting the student at Largo High School. The fight occurred last Friday, Nov. 15, when the student confronted Noirie after she contacted her parents the day before. Cell phone video footage shows the teacher repeatedly punching and kicking the student, who eventually fights back.

The video is both disgraceful and disturbing. In reviewing the video you couldn’t tell the teacher from the student, although the teacher appears to be dressed for a fight.

After the student is pulled off of the teacher, she can be heard screaming at her and calling her a bitch, as if she were her teachers equal. Where should the lines be drawn? Where is the RESPECT?

Tune in at 6:30 p.m. EST with our host, Ms. Tracy L. Bell for her commentary – “No Respect – Teacher vs. Student” on “Conversations Of A Sistah“
