Nubian Health Network and Midwife Jennie Joseph present the first showing in the state of Florida for Bringin' in da Spirit - a moving documentary narrated by Phylicia Rashad celebrating and honoring the legacy of the women who delivered Black America. Followed by a round table discussion of The State of Black Women's Health in Central Florida, moderated by Midwife and Lecturer Jennie Joseph, LM, CPM.
Bringin' in da Spirit tells of the story of Black American midwives and their efforts to preserve not just their profession, but their traditional way of life. Through first person narrative and rare archival images, viewers share the experience of midwives who faced powerful misconceptions and opposition from practitioners of Western medicine but still continued to offer women a holistic alternative
