How does "professionalism" stop us from showing up as activists and advocates for change in birth care?
In this episode, Katy Cecen, NICU nurse & midwife, turned whistleblower, activist and full-time community organizer shares her journey and growth in stepping up to face the challenges and inequities of our birth care system.
She details how professionalism is a tool of white supremacy culture, the privilege inherent in operating as an "apolitical" birth pro, and 3 steps you can take now to change your practice and step into activism.
