Black Lives Matter: Claiming a Space for Evidence-Based Outrage in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: While the phrase “Black Lives Matter” began inauspiciously—a hashtag on Twitter following the 2013 acquittal of George Zimmerman in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin—it has been widely embraced by those describing the larger context of persistent inequities for Black Americans. The phrase is provocative by design, and its use conveys both urgency and frustration with the status quo.
