Charles S. Johnson IV Instagram – March 1st we return to pay homage to “THE MOTHERS OF GYNECOLOGY” join us! This is a conference you won’t want to miss. For info follow & support @anarchalucybetsey Anarcha, Lucy, and Betsey were enslaved women from plantations in and around Montgomery, Alabama. With neither consent nor anesthesia, they were experimented on by Dr. J. Marion Sims in the 1840s. After publishing the results of his “success,” Sims moved to New York to seek fame and fortune. Within a decade, he became known as the Father of Gynecology. By contrast, Anarcha, Betsey, and Lucy fell into history. They changed the world, only to be forgotten by it. A 15-foot public monument will honor these women, tell their story, and shine a light on ongoing racial disparities in the healthcare industry today. #birthingjustice #herstory #sayhername #blackmamasmatter #midwifery #doulasmatter #momnibus #4kira4moms #lovealwayswins
