Delivering New Worlds: Black Doulas talk about Black Futures
If we are our ancestors’ wildest dreams, then what are our dreams for Black futures? This Black History month we are celebrating the past, but also contemplating how it’s shaped the present and what kind of future we’d like to co-create. Join Young Women Empowered and the Department of Neighborhoods for a panel discussion with four Black doulas: Rokea Jones (birth doula), Adana Protonentis (disability doula), Lashanna Williams (death doula), and Faisa Farole (Global Perinatal Services) moderated by writer and Y-WE Co-Executive Director Reagan Jackson. There will be dinner and community reflection with a closing by Y-WE Grow Program Coordinator Tayah Carlisle.
