Did anyone see the NYT magazine story on maternal mortality rates for black mothers? https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/11/magazine/black-mothers-babies-death-maternal-mortality.html

I read some interesting pieces about this around the time of Serena Williams’s Vogue cover story, but this was a great piece that got surprisingly little traction, I thought. Also not covered above but available online is this weekend’s magazine cover story on Harvey Karp and the business of baby sleep (will post link separately).
