  • "There are places in America where the unthinkable is happening -- too many babies are dying. In most cities, black babies are dying at three times the rate of white babies. That's what's happening in Memphis, Tennessee, the city with the nation's highest rate of infant mortality. A baby dies there on average every 43 hours. But many people are working to change that startling statistic. ''Babyland, '' is a one-hour report anchored by Elizabeth Vargas. Vargas travels to Memphis to report on what's being done there, and to see what the rest of the country can learn."@en
