“Sometimes between two rocks I’d cut the baby’s umbilical cord”

“When the moon is full, birth is easier”

“Our biggest weapon is how we treat people”

“It is violence against women, both for me as a midwife and for people in the community”

“We don’t want this tradition to be lost”

“We ask that the work of midwives be recognized as ancestral knowledge”

“My grandmother, my mother, and now me”

“I accepted becoming a midwife because my conscience was already to lend my hand to others”

“Under the gunfire”

“They burned our houses”
