N2 - Zakiyyah came to the CBC at the age of 39 with her first pregnancy. She and her husband ran a martial arts center in the South Bronx, and as an African-American family were very African-centered in their approach to healing and health care, researching and practicing ancestral methods. She describes feeling at home when she walked into the Center—from its inclusive environment and staff to the women’s involvement in their own care. After her son Ishakamusa was born, she helped organize services for the community and became a national spokesperson for maternal rights.
