We had so many high points during Black Maternal Health Week, including a touching Libation Ceremony in Detroit that we hosted honoring the Mamas we've lost. We really appreciated hearing everyone's stories. Thank you to everyone who made that ceremony so meaningful.✨

As Passover continues, we wish everyone who is celebrating a meaningful and fulfilling holiday. 💜

Sending extra love today to the Mamas we share🌍with! As we work towards policy changes that support all Mamas, let's remember to protect THIS Mama too. Happy Earth Day from Mothering Justice! 🧡 #EarthDay #Loveyourmother

THANK YOU to the Mamas, the advocates, and everyone who joined us this past week to explore, discuss, and work towards better Black maternal health. Changes are coming, and you’re a big part of that! Let’s keep up the fight 💪🏾

It’s 2024. We know that Black women face different challenges when it comes to pregnancy and childbirth. Pre- and post-natal care should reflect that. Period. #BlackMaternalHealthWeek #BMHW

We’re wrapping up our #BMHW programming Wednesday with a webinar focused on accessing vital health resources both before and after birth. Register now at motheringjustice.org/events

The numbers are alarming—but we can work to make it better! Providing equal access to prenatal care is one way to start closing the racial gap in maternal mortality. #BMHW

Our fight doesn’t end when Black Maternal Health Week ends 💪🏾 Join us as we march in Lansing and Washington DC at our 12th annual Mamas' March!

📍 LANSING, MI | May 7
📍 WASHINGTON D.C | May 8-9

📣Mamas VS. Everybody merchandise coming soon🎉

Why #BMHW ? Black maternal mortality is more than double the rate of white maternal mortality. We use this week as a way to have meaningful discussions that lead to real change. #BMHW 24.

Today, we launch Black Maternal Health Week with a libation ceremony in Detroit honoring all of the Mamas we’ve lost. Swipe to view our other #BMHW events and make sure to visit motheringjustice.org/events for registration and details.

Last month's State of the Mama was just the beginning of an exciting lineup of events happening nationwide. Thanks to Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib and Rep. Jimmy Gomez for joining us!
