I remember this day like it was yesterday. So wild it was 23 years ago!!! I was sitting at home watching . had just arrived at school for the day and I was nursing my four day old baby when the horrific even occurred. I know we all have our experiences from that day. I truly thought “I just brought a brand new baby into this world and it is about to end, or we were about to go to war.” 😢😢 What a helpless feeling that was.

On Sept. 11, 2001, New York Times photographers were on the ground in New York City and outside Washington covering the terrorist attacks and their aftermath. The work would win them the Pulitzer Prize for breaking news photography in 2002. Two decades later, the photographers reflected on the images they created during that time, and what it took to capture them.

Tap the link in our bio to read what the photographers had to say about their work from that day and the days that followed.

Black Birth Joy!!!! It exists. with .repost

Last week at 8pm sharp I photographed childbirth for the first time🙏🏾 I’m still in awe.

It was an honor to work on this story with my colleague Raquel Torres. She pitched this important story about Black Maternal health and I’m so grateful to Genise Head for allowing me to document the birth of her first child❤️ and huge thanks to Nikki McIver-Brown, founder of for facilitating this opportunity and allowing me into her scared space. 🙏🏾

And huge thanks to and my colleagues and for preparing me to be able to capture this so I would know what to expect and not pass out🥹👍🏾

Words by Raquel and me:
As Kirk Franklin’s voice sang over the speaker, “His eye’s on the sparrow; That’s the reason why I sing,” Genise Head gave the final push to deliver her first child.

Through more than seven hours of labor, she was surrounded by a chorus of three midwives, a doula, her mother and her husband, Davonte, who encouraged her as she focused, shouting in rhythm with the contractions.

Head, who is a local neonatal intensive care unit nurse, made the unconventional decision to give birth outside a hospital setting in order to advocate for herself — given the odds against her as a Black mother.

“I’m a NICU nurse, but I’m a Black woman first,” Head said.

Head gave birth at one of only 20 Black-owned birthing centers in the U.S., San Antonio Nurse Midwife, a birthing home on San Antonio’s Northeast Side.

San Antonio’s annual maternal health report doesn’t report maternal deaths among Black women, but data revealed that Black women in Bexar County are experiencing lower birth rates and are 50% more likely to have newborns with lower birth weight, according to a study by the Metropolitan Health District.

Ten infants die per 1,000 births within the non-Hispanic Black population in Bexar County, according to the report.

“Choosing to birth this way is me advocating for myself,” she said. “There’s biases on the health care system side, but advocating for yourself is the best thing you can do.”
