The Pain Gap: How Sexism and Racism in Healthcare Kill Women by Anushay Hossain

informative

4.0

This book had good, useful information, but was definitely repetitive at times. The overall topics were focusing on the high childbirth mortality rate in America, racism, and healthcare, and how COVID is forcing women to stay home, further reinforcing dated gender roles and setting back progress. Rather than focusing on one topic at a time, the book jumps back and forth quite a book, leading to some of the repetitiveness.

I wish I had the authors optimism for the future. Even though she had written an entire book on fatal flaws of American practices, I still felt she looked at the country with rose-colored goggles.
