1093569 Public Health Nursing as we learned it. Changing communities from the inside out. Using the wheel - all that.

1093569 This was a page-turning partial medical memoir, partial investigative journalism into premature birth. Here's my review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
1093569 Wow! My head is still in the pages of this one. So much to take in and so many thoughts:
Why are there so many displaced people? How can we stop this? Do away with machismo culture?
Covid and refugee camps. Is anyone prepared for that?

I would say the similar feelings of uncertainty and ineptitude, during first clinical assignments, resonated with me.

1093569 Here is my review and thoughts on Lissa Rankin's provocative book on the mind's healing power. https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
1093569 Yes, while reading Fauziya's book I kept wondering if she received worse treatment for being African. I know she was put in isolation the night before a procedure to make certain she remained NPO. However, when she was finally at her appointment, she spoke with another inmate who was receiving the same procedure, and happened to be white, but did not have to be put into isolation the evening before her procedure. There were other incidents where I also felt she was discriminated against, based on color, possibly, but I'm not certain. For example, why was she so often detained in maximum while other immigrants were not? The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness is added to my "to read" list. :)

As a nurse, what I found disheartening in this book was the lack of medical care appropriated to prisoners and immigrants, asking for appointments. Also pertinent to the field is the practice of female genital mutilation (FGM) and our role in advocating for women. Here is my review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
