Summary: Tonight my guests will be Anna Van Wagoner and Kirsti Kreutzer of the Birth Activist retreat. Join us live! from their site: It is time for a full scale birth revolution! The time for talking is long past. Our maternal and infant mortality rates are not going down. Our surgical birth rate is not going down. Birth trauma and birth rape are far too common. We need action now! The Birth Activist Retreat is not your typical conference where folks sit around passively consuming information. We will be working as a group planning actions that will make a difference: Nationally coordinated events, such as the Improving Birth Rallies; local events that can transform communities; and individual actions that will raise awareness about the challenges we face. There will be workshops where Birth Activists can build the skills they need to make a difference. There will be many opportunities to network with other activists, share inspiring ideas and receive feedback on the unique issues facing your community.
