this was so beautiful I am so glad I went all the way back to read it. I am so in awe of how you used your experience to lessen the harshness of the experience for others. Glad to be a witness to what was BORNE from it. <3
Beautiful article of your lived experience and the variables we are encountering. The culture of birthing, healing, and building was intact when our ancestors were here on Turtle Island and Alkebulan before the arrival of the Mayflower. We must recognize the system that was designed is anti-everything that is not white, male, and privileged. Reclaim our wealth of ancestral wisdom and knowledge. Our system of justice, restoration, and accountability rests within our DNA and heritage. Our 43,000+ black midwives were alive and well before the medical takeover of our wombs in the 1920s. Reclaim our womb portals. Reclaim our ancestral science of birthing. Reclaim our ancestral science of spirituality and medicine.
