Our Bodies, Our Voices, Our Choices

The political approach of the NBWHP is best summarized by Our Bodies, Our Voices, Our Choices, a NBWHP informational health booklet. The booklet outlines that every woman can increase her ability to achieve overall health by being knowledgeable about her body, aware of her rights, empowered to ask questions about her health, and knowing the quality of information and services she is entitled to. The booklet also states that when women know the context and history of how oppression has affected Black women's health and ability to have a say in their health Black women will want to get politically involved.
