Episode Description
Dear Mama: We believe EVERY BLACK MAMA matters and when we say EVERY we mean EVERY. This episode is dedicated to the mamas giving birth in the belly of the beast of white supremacy, the US prison system, and the birth workers like our guest Doula Chauntel Norris who refuse to sit and wait for the world to change but live the words of Audre Lorde, we are ones we've been waiting for.
