Mother’s milk: Indigenous Midwifery
Sophia Rosacker
“Mother’s Milk: Indigenous Midwifery” illustrates the connection between Native American women’s fight for reproductive justice and movements for indigenous sovereignty. The podcast highlights the systemic racism and cultural genocide facing Native Americans and shines a light particularly on indigenous practices of midwifery. The reteaching of these practices is very important for preserving Native American cultures and reclaiming autonomy under the colonialist U.S. government.
Trigger Warning: This podcast contains brief mention of sexual and physical abuse.
