Ep. 72- Black Breastfeeding Equity and Opportunity for Change: an interview with Dr. DeVane-Johnson Aug 27, 2021

Show notes

It's Black Breastfeeding Week!

Join us to chat with midwife, Dr. Stephanie DeVane-Johnson, PhD, CNM, FACNM, about some basics of the health disparities and history of breastfeeding in the Black community, and how we move forward with healing. Trigger warning: we explore some of the historic and present day trauma of breastfeeding for Black people.

Dr. DeVane-Johnson has more than 23 years experience as a midwife and her research focuses on breastfeeding and health disparities in African Americans. She has written and published on the impact that cultural and socio-historical influences have on African American infant feeding decisions. Her work is a key piece of understanding how the Black maternal and infant health crisis can be changed. This is an incredible opportunity for us to listen up and make changes.

Don't miss this episode!
Dr. DeVane-Johnson has asked that we donate to the Kira Johnson Fund as a part of making these changes. You can join us in donating here: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/march-for-moms

Listener Question: My husband is convinced that my one cup of instant coffee a day is why our 2-month-oldis gassy. Could this be true?
