In Episode 2 of Support Unseen, Bri speaks with Safiya (she/they), an artist, an activist, and a full-spectrum community doula, about how non-medical abortion support compares, contrasts, and fills gaps to care provided within the medical industrial complex. Safiya is a Black, Americanized, Caribbean Goddess, trying to thrive in the diaspora and decolonize. She considers herself a crucial part of the village(s) it takes to create families, raise families, and keep our communities thriving in resilience. She spends much of her time dreaming up ways an oppressive, individualistic, capitalist society can be nurturing for children and non-traditional family structures. Safiya also previously worked at Richmond Reproductive Freedom Project (RRFP) as a Caller Support Coordinator.
