Today, host Mandii B is joined by award-winning photographer, filmmaker, and director Eva Woolridge. Eva is a passionate advocate for reproductive justice and a survivor of a misdiagnosed dermoid cyst. In this episode, Eva shares her intense and enlightening journey, from her early excitement about menstruation to confronting severe healthcare disparities after a misdiagnosis that led to the loss of her ovary.
Later the ladies talk about delves into the transformative work she's championing through her documentary project “In These Hands”, exploring the impactful histories and current contributions of Black birth workers in the United States, and their essential role in reproductive justice despite institutional restrictions placed against them. This discussion is not just about raising awareness—it's also about sparking real change in how we talk about and manage women's health issues.
Join us as we untangle these complex topics with humor, honesty, and hope for a better understanding and improved healthcare advocacy.
