Pregnancy for Black Women in America

Follow the story of three Black women navigating pregnancy within a system not built to protect them. The film "Listen to Me" challenges us to shift the narrative from crisis response to reimagine maternal health as a continuum of care, justice, healing and radical listening. Every year, Black women in the U.S. are disproportionately affected by maternal health complications and mortality. "Listen to Me" offers an unfiltered, human lens into this crisis—creating space for deeper understanding and critical dialogue.
