“I was at the lowest low before I got pregnant, so when I got pregnant I was like, ‘Oh, shit!’ because I was homeless, everybody disowned me, I was on drugs, it was a whole mess. When I got pregnant, I just clicked that I just had to get better, because I just threw my whole life into her.”
Celebrating Black Maternal Health Week
Black Maternal Health Week, founded and led by the Black Mamas Matter Alliance, takes place every year from April 11 –17. The campaign and activities for Black Maternal Health Week serve to amplify the voices of Black mamas and center the values and traditions of the reproductive and birth justice movements.
