    09: Realm of Black Women w/ Malawi's House

    Today we are stepping into a space of liminality with doula-in-training and community bridge builder, Shayla, founder of Malawi's House! Birthwork has always existed as a pillar of family, community bonding, and resistance in Black spaces. As mortality rates among Black and brown mothers remain alarmingly high, many are  amplifying the work of Black doulas, birthworkers, and post-partum caregivers who are on the frontlines of advocacy work and accessibility to health services and family planning for Black parents and their communities.  🌻 Instagram @rosecolored_scholar & follow Shayla @MalawisHouse  🌻 Twitter @AfronautGriot 🌻 Support my work on Patreon and access exclusive decolonized lessons, group history workshops, and antiracist tools - www.patreon.com/antiracistliberation
