WATCH: Reproductive Justice

Building wealth is critical to Black women’s ability to create their futures. Reproductive justice is based on the United Nations’ internationally-accepted Universal Declaration of Human Rights, a comprehensive body of law that details the rights of individuals and the responsibilities of government to protect those rights. It is about access, not choice. With increased attacks on the bodies of women, diminished access to healthcare and the rolling back of some of our most progressive policy wins, Black women are forced to envision new ways to create and sustain wealth for generations to come. This panel posits that it is time to Trust Black Women to lead us into the future of wealth where we are our Ancestors wildest dreams.
