Reproductive Justice leaders met January 20-22, 2023 in Atlanta, Georgia, convened by SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective. This summit took place on what would have been the 50th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion—a decision that was overturned in 2022 leading to the loss of legal abortion in half the country. The group envisioned a new future for Reproductive Justice, which follows here.
OUR PROGRAMS ACTUALIZING BLACK HEALING & BLACK LIBERATION
Black Civic Engagement & Policy
Our Black Civic Engagement & Policy program is a Black Women-centered, non-partisan program that is committed to consistently advocate for the dismantling of anti-Black oppression within institutions – the legislature, ballot box, and beyond.
Black Healing, Health & Joy
The heart of Soul 2 Soul Sisters is our Black Healing, Health, & Joy program. Through Self-Love Saturdays, SistaSoul Search Retreat, and Sacred Seeds Black Birthworker Collective of Colorado, Soul 2 Soul Sisters strives to embody and model life-nourishing ways to honor and protect Black Women, femmes, and gender expansive beloveds’ lives, loves, decisions, families, communities, and futures.
Facing Racism
Facing Racism is our ending anti-Black racism & ending white supremacy culture programming. We host cohorts for individuals and a Facing Racism Alumni program.
Reparations
Reparations as economic justice and healing justice are interwoven in our racial justice approach. We name and dismantle the U.S.A.’s multi-generational sin of enslaving Black people, historic and present-day systemic racial plunder, and this country’s racial wealth chasm as evidence that reparations to Black people are right and righteous, right NOW.
Sacred Seeds Black Birthworker Collective of Colorado
Sacred Seeds Black Birthworker Collective of Colorado has 15 Black birth workers who live in cities across Colorado. For new and seasoned birth workers, we provide sacred space for cultivating support, relationships, and personal and professional development as the birthworkers journey with Black birthing persons, infants, and their families.
Self-Love Saturdays
These are loving, intergenerational, judgement-free convenings for Black Women, femmes & gender expansive beloveds. During our time together, we hold sacred space for one another as we discuss varying liberative themes that assist us in our individual and collective healing journeys.
