As a whole, the AHA is a positive organization, obviously. I have one concern: I am taking American Heart Association CPR/First Aid training as I type this. In ...watching the current videos, I'm extremely disappointed with the way AHA depicts women. In almost all of the rescue scenes in your current First Aid video, women are on the sideline either: standing around not knowing what to do or are standing by the victim not taking action and merely following a man's (who becomes the first responder) directions and running to call 911.
Acting is always sub par in these types of videos, but I would assume that an organization as large as AHA could make a conscious effort to portray both men and women as capable first responders. It's an embarrassment really that in 2016 this is easily noticeable in an American Heart Association training video. I hope an effort to correct this blatant and unnecessary sexism is made.

The education and dedication that the AHA offers is irreplaceable. Get involved, educate yourself and those in your community. Eliminate potential less health...ier options from your food options. Eradicate the chances of letting heart disease win. My gorgeous mother-in-law acsended 5/2/16 and my beautiful mother ascended 9/7/16 from this #1 killer of Americans. Be good to yourself and love on your loved ones every day. #BettyJames #ChariFranklin you will live on through us!! See More
