Michelle Obama

it was clear that you were struggling.

That you were physically, you were not the Serena Williams everybody knew, but I also was very proud of you for showing that story.

And anyone who hasn't, remind me the name of the guy.

Being Serena.

This is like watching her journey and her comeback

you show it all in a way that is so powerful.

And if I didn't love you before then, I loved you even more just watching your determination to get that baby home regardless of your health.

But you were struggling.

Giving birth is intense.

Yeah, you put your life on the line.

It is why maternal health should not be a political football.

Because what our bodies do, what we are capable of doing is amazing.

But the fact that

There isn't research done on maternal health.

There's a limited amount of information we get about our health.

We aren't encouraged to ask questions.

We aren't encouraged to talk amongst each other.

And I just want us to vow today, regardless of our generation, that we don't pass that down to the next generation.

I agree.

That we owe them the knowledge, the wisdom.
