To continue celebrating National Breastfeeding Month and uplift Black Breastfeeding Week, we took this opportunity to celebrate with an inspiring and enlightening roundtable discussion! Amy convened with Kiddada Green, Founding Executive Director of the Black Mother's Breastfeeding Association (BMBFA) and co-founder of Black Breastfeeding Week, and Lead BMBFA Mommy Ambassador Malikah Garner and Victoria Washington, treasurer of the Black Mother's Breastfeeding Association to discuss the joys, challenges and disparities, stories, and strength within the community of Black breastfeeding mothers. These women share their passion, their moments of triumph and struggle, and the wisdom that followed. Join us as we celebrate, encourage, and commune with our breastfeeding family. The bond of nourishment truly unites us all.
