Please allow me to differ with you about what you consider NOT a NORM.  Black
men and/or black physicians or are breastfeeding sympathizers.  At that
physicians possible age, most women of color were nursing our babies.  Ask
some sometimes.  Meharry School of Medicine and Morehouse  Medical School have
train physician for years to work with lactating women!!  Dr Hank Foster from
Meharry helped write some original language in  the Documents Dr. Koop sent
out in 1978.  The conference was held at Meharry! You probably don't hear or
see much of this because that is what you expect.  Please refrain from such
racial comments until you get some facts.
