CHOCOLATE MILK: THE DOCUMENTARY is an exploration of the racial divide in breastfeeding. Told through the narratives of three African American women: a new mother, a midwife and a WIC lactation educator, the film seeks to answer the longstanding question of why more African American women are not breastfeeding. By creating an engaging narrative centered around the challenges of breastfeeding, Chocolate Milk will spark public discussion on how communities can better support black mothers. Our goal is to premiere the film in 200 community screenings across the country during National Breastfeeding Month in August 2019.
Location: Screening is located in the Basement of Pavillion C in the Sabin Room. Parking is FREE in the Delaware garage located on 660 Delaware St. labeld on the Denver Health map as P2
Sponsors for the event include: The Center for African American Health , Denver Health Foundation, Colorado Breastfeeding Coalition, Naya Care, Soul 2 Soul Sisters, The Elephant Circle, Families Forward Resource Center, and The Mother's Milk Bank
