Meet Our Mamas and Caregivers
We're witnessing a distressing narrative unfold, perpetuated by cynical politicians and sensationalized by the media. They peddle tales that stoke fear, suggesting that bail reform imperils safety. Yet, we understand the power of storytelling. A single story holds the potential to shape perceptions, but it alone cannot alter the course of the world. Change is a gradual process, a symphony of stories harmonizing and resonating with one another.
#FreeBlackMamas isn't just a hashtag; it's an evolving saga, each tale adding layers to the discourse, crafting multifaceted arguments for why change is not only possible but imperative for our people. #FreeBlackMamas embraces a journey of resistance, resilience, and ongoing struggle. These stories, woven by those most intimately acquainted with the injustices of the carceral system, serve as poignant reminders of the roots from which our movement springs. They fuel our resolve and illuminate the path towards liberation.

“I would like to somehow get into something to help girls who are going through a domestic violence situation. Some of them think there’s no way out…they’re scared to leave because you know they’re going to come after you and try to kill you.”
