This week reading, this reading was emotional for me but I wasn’t surprised about the abuse, neglect, and disrespect in the healthcare system and the workers getting away with it. There is some hospital that I went to located in the Bronx that has disrespected their patients regardless of gender and race. What’s more upsetting is are the doctors, nurses, and EMTs who have neglected their patients are still working and not receiving consequences for neglect. People need to take more action in healthcare, no matter what race, gender, or sexuality everyone deserves the health they need to be alive and go on with their lives. If they don’t want to treat people then they should find another job! It’s sad to read people who are non-binary or transgender typing an experience about trans people not receiving healthcare. In the film Period. End of the conversation I was upset about what women in India had to go through when it comes to periods. It seems during the film they went through a lot and a lot of clothes changing when it comes to their weekly menstruation. It’s amazing to see in India a woman creating their business to make pads for women in need, one of my favorite parts that I chuckle at is when a man was asked what the woman was doing and he said that these women are making “diapers” for their monthly cycle. It’s a shame how men in India aren’t educated about the monthly cycle.
