Abstract
Of the people who need abortion care in the United States every year, 75% are poor or living on low-incomes and approximately 60% are Black, Indigenous, and other people of color [1]. Black, Indigenous, and other people of color face profound inequities in accessing essential health care as a result of a long history of systemic racism and discrimination [2]. Accessing abortion is no different. Further, due to the stark racial disparities in maternal mortality and morbidity in the United States, Black and Indigenous people who cannot access the abortion care they need confront unconscionably elevated risks in carrying a pregnancy to term [3–5].
