All Black Everything | Is a diverse healthcare workforce enough to eradicate racism in medicine?

Hosted by Taja Lindley, Black Women's Dept. of Labor is a necessary and nuanced exploration of what it means to labor while Black and female. This project, produced by Colored Girls Hustle, digs into the dual meaning of its title: the work performed in a society and the profound act of bringing life into it. Each episode acts as a documentary lens, focusing on the real stories and systemic forces at the intersection of race, gender, economics, and bodily autonomy. You’ll hear conversations and narratives that move beyond headlines, grounding the news and politics of our time in the lived experiences of Black women and birthing people. The podcast, released every other Wednesday, creates a space for deep listening and understanding, supported by the Economic Hardship Reporting Project. It builds on a foundation of advocacy, having evolved from the Birth Justice Podcast NYC, to continue its vital mission. Tune in for a thoughtful, challenging, and essential audio journey that reframes how we think about care, justice, and the very definition of work.
