For Black Maternal Health Week, we celebrate the important work that Black midwives do in their communities. In this week's show, we'll hear a conversation about how one woman followed her calling to midwifery in a story brought to us by the podcast _Re:Work_ from the UCLA Labor Center.
Featuring:
Kimberly Durdin, licensed midwife and co-founder of Kindred Space LA and the Birthing People Foundation
