Place reservation for My Black motherhood : mental health, stigma, racism and the systemWhere are the safe spaces for Black mums? Like many new mums, Sandra Igwe developed postnatal anxiety and depression, but found she was stereotyped and dismissed. Only by creating a community who 'got it' did she find empowerment and joy. Sandra speaks out in the failings in the support that is meant to reach all mothers; but excludes Black women.
