Black women are durable, but just like glass, we can break.

During From Harm to Healing: Black Women, Reproductive Justice, and Medical Bo***ge, Dr. Deirdre Cooper Owens, Danielle Toyou, Jessica Knott, and Dr. Joy Bradley, alongside moderator Lori Rodriguez, challenged the myth that Black women must always be strong.

Together, they unpacked the lasting impact of medical racism, reproductive trauma, and inequitable care while reminding us that healing must make room for joy, liberation, community, and the full humanity of Black women. 🧡

Why do some schools have more police presence than access to a school nurse?

During our Youth Track session, Kahlila Williams shared what it looks like when young people organize for the safety and care they actually need. She and fellow students pushed for reinvestment into student health services, showing that youth voices belong at the center of conversations about safety, reproductive justice, and their futures.

This is what youth power looks like. ✊🏾
