Event Link: Chocolate Milk the documentary
The documentary explores the racial divide in breastfeeding, told through the narratives of three African American women: a new mother, a midwife and a WIC lactation educator, seeking to answer the longstanding question of, why more African American women are not breastfeeding. By uncovering the challenges of breastfeeding, Chocolate Milk will spark public discussion on how communities can better support black mothers.
