Old knowledge about how to welcome new beings into the world and honor the sacred cycles of life and death, held by wisdom keepers in our communities, is returning around the globe. Faced with the significant harm created by the medical-industrial complex on Black, Indigenous, people of colorBIPOC people giving birth, midwives, doulas and public health practitioners are coming together to create community birth centers and networks of community care that are becoming cornerstones of wellness around the world.
