RETHINK COMMUNITY: THE PODCAST
Welcome to the Rethink Community podcast, brought to you by ThinkTank. For over a decade, ThinkTank has been helping people and organizations step into the stories of those who face poverty every day. We believe that stories have the power to break through our opinions and positions, and bring us together. On this podcast, we bring you real stories from people who have grappled with poverty, faced obstacles, blazed new trails, and forged unlikely relationships.
HOMECOMING PODCAST
At Homecoming, we address two myths: 1) Hospitals are the safest place to give birth and 2) Black families don't birth at home. We broadcast how Black families birth in love and choose to birth at home, unassisted or with midwives. We interview parents, birth workers, cloth diaper enthusiasts and also feature stories of hospital transfer during planned home births and even stories of loss. Join us as we discover Black homebirth stories in the context of the national crisis in maternal and infant health. In spite of the statistics, we DO have beautiful births! Welcome home.
