Black women have a painful history with breastfeeding, and it's a necessity to address their specific needs. The racial inequities built into our society make breastfeeding and lactation essential to the survival of Black moms and babies.

It's #Juneteenth consider donating @BlkMamasMatter "...a Black women-led cross-sectoral alliance. We center Black mamas to advocate, drive research, build power, and shift culture for Black maternal health, rights, and justice." https://t.co/jZucDAtt6Z

No Mama should have to endure the agony of being forcibly separated from their children. We stand in solidarity with all of the families + organizers on the frontlines of this fight. We must all contribute our voices to bringing this inhumanity to an end. #KeepFamilesTogether

"ACNM strongly recommends an immediate halt to forced separation and swift reunification of these families." https://t.co/SIupvapUen

“Separating children from their parents contradicts everything we stand for as pediatricians – protecting and promoting children’s health. In fact, highly stressful experiences, like family separation, can cause irreparable harm, disrupting a child's brain architecture..." https://t.co/Kl0AANIDE2

Statement from @AAPPres Dr. Colleen Kraft opposing the Border Security and Immigration Reform Act: Family separation causes irreparable harm. https://t.co/8kcgN0YPZ0 #ProtectFamilies

“...to ignore the specific misogynoir Black woman and femmes experience within, and outside of the medical institutions of the United States, is to erase the history of pain and disrespect Black women’s bodies experience every day.” https://t.co/pxf35kwVGF #BlackMamasMatter
