U.S. officials can withhold their rationale in family separation cases that relate to national security. There have been about 80 children separated for these reasons this year, with an estimated 50 of them Russian.
More than 20,000 pregnancies in the United States end in stillbirth each year. These losses are not inevitable. At least 1 in 4 U.S. stillbirths is likely preventable.
“Before a Breath,” a new feature documentary from ProPublica, weaves together the stories of three mothers who lost children to stillbirth and are now striving to make pregnancy safer for everyone. Inspired by Duaa Eldeib’s groundbreaking reporting, which was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize, this intimate, infuriating and ultimately hopeful film shines a light on the aftermath of stillbirth.
“Before a Breath” will be released in 2025. Help spread the word, and sign up to get updates and learn how to host your own screening.
