Freedom
Black Women Resisting & Reimagining Power
A community course on Reproductive Justice for Black women, grounded in history, embodied in practice, and built for the moment we're in. Because the knowledge they're banning belongs to us first.
Enrollment closes September 7, 2026
"This course is not about learning how to survive systems that were never built for us. It is about building the world we deserve together, boldly, and on our own terms."— RE Collective
The knowledge they're trying to erase belongs to us.
As DEI bans sweep across academic institutions and reproductive health becomes a political battlefield, the frameworks that center Black women which include our histories, our bodies, our grief, our futures are all being pushed out of formal education spaces.
This course exists because that knowledge cannot wait for permission. Reproductive Justice was built by Black women. It belongs in our hands first.
For those shut out of the classroom
If your public health, nursing, social work program (or any educational program for that matter) can no longer fully teach this work with the rigor it deserves, this course names it, centers it, and gives you the full picture you need for your own personal and professional growth.
For those doing the work every day
Clinicians, advocates, and community leaders who need language, frameworks, and a community of practice to ground what they already feel in their bones.
For Black women seeking their own story
If you have felt dismissed, unheard, or harmed by systems not designed for you, this course names that experience and puts it in full historical and political context.
For those ready to build something
Organizers, doulas, birth workers, and community builders ready to ground their work in the RJ framework and carry it forward with clarity and power.
This course was made for you if —
- Students & Emerging ProfessionalsYou're in public health, nursing, social work, or a related field and the curriculum isn't giving you the full picture of who health systems have harmed and why.
- Healthcare & Public Health WorkersYou want the frameworks and community to better advocate for the Black women and families you serve, or to understand your own experience in the system.
- Black WomenYou've felt dismissed or harmed by systems never designed with you in mind, and you're ready to name it, understand it, and find your people in this work.
- Advocates & OrganizersYou're ready to ground your work in reproductive justice and carry it into your community with clarity, confidence, and community behind you.

Liberated Learning Hub
Liberated Learning Hub exists at the intersection of body, community, and truth. Founded on the belief that education must humanize — returning us to our bodies, each other, and the earth — Liberated Learning offers a methodology grounded in somatic practice, relational ecology, restorative culture, and reciprocal belonging.
This Reproductive Justice course extends that mission into one of the most urgent conversations of our time. This course was created by Dr. Kenya Johnson and Dr. Kim Baker who bring more than 30 years experience of leading health equity work, teaching students in sexual health, family and gender studies and sociology, training professionals on race equity and ensuring access to care all while centering Black women and girls in every room they enter.
They have both seen what happens when reproductive justice is reduced to a talking point versus what's possible when it becomes a living practice.
You were never meant to navigate this alone.
Four modules. Three live evenings. A community built on savage freedom. Enrollment closes September 7.
