Film Screening, “Listen to Me” - In recognition of Black Maternal Health Week
Followed by Discussion with Director, Kanika Harris; facilitated by Whitney Peoples and Safyer McKenzie-Sampson
Listen to Me is the story of three women who stand on the front lines of the maternal health struggle while walking the delicate tightrope of racism and birth in the United States. The film explores the realities of birth, care and community through the lived experiences of Black women.
This is a film about heartbreak, survival, healing and rebirth. Beyond dismal statistics, Listen to Me centers the voices and spirit of Black women.
