About this Event
“All My Babies,” a Midwife's own Story: Reflections of the past and impacts on the future
Documtray watch party in honor of Black Maternal Health Week 2025
Mary Francis Hill Coley was a Black midwife from Albany, Georgia. During her career, Coley delivered over 3,000 babies! In this 1952 documentary, “All My Babies,” Coley demonstrated how a well-trained lay midwife could deliver healthy babies even in the poorest conditions while acting as an intermediary between patients, nurses, physicians, and members of the local community. Join us for a viewing of this educational documentary as we reflect on the legacy of Francis Hill Coley and the future of midwifery care in the present.
