Free Film Screening & Conversation: Deliver Us

The Maternal, Child and Adolescent Health Student Interest Group (MCAH SIG) is excited to host a screening of Deliver Us, an 80-minute feature documentary by filmmakers Jenny Kwandham & Randi Matthews. In the United States, Black mothers are dying in childbirth at staggering rates. In the midst of a national race reckoning, Black midwives around the country are fighting back; opening birth centers, navigating restrictive laws, and demanding justice for Black families inside a deeply inequitable healthcare system. The 80-minute film interweaves the journeys of four midwives from across the country as they battle systemic inequities, red tape, funding challenges, and more while delivering babies outside of the broken and deadly U.S. healthcare system. Following the film screening, we will engage in small group reflections guided by a series of questions. These are incredibly important conversations that we should be having, and we would love to learn from one another’s perspectives. We look forward to seeing you there!

OBR's 3rd Annual Halloween Costume Run from Beeryland

*This year's Halloween Costume Run will be from Beeryland Oakland. Bring and wear your favorite (run-able) costume on this night, OBR!* We will meet at Beeryland (aka Telegraph Beer Garden) by 6:30pm, start the run 10 minutes later, run around the lake (a little above 3.7 miles), and return to the beer garden for beers and food. **Run Route:** https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/6065466607/ Like all runs, we will do our best to prevent people from getting lost and we are very flexible when it comes to pace and distance. All levels of running and drinking experience are welcome! Street parking can be limited in this area. So, please make an effort to arrive early or take public transit. There are also a few nearby parking garages and lots that are within walking distance from the beer garden (hourly rates on these lots will vary). Like anywhere in Oakland, please do not leave personal items of ANY value in your car if you plan on driving here. Beeryland is less than 1/2 mile walk from 19th Street BART, and there is a spot for bike parking. **Beeryland details:** Website -- https://www.beeryland.com/ Instagram -- https://www.instagram.com/beeryland_oakland/ Yelp -- https://www.yelp.com/biz/beeryland-oakland-2 Untappd -- https://untappd.com/v/telegraph-bar-and-beer-garden/12415683 **Obligatory Disclaimer:** While the goal of this group is to have fun, safety is our top priority. Please take precaution when participating in these runs - wear bright colors when running at night, always be aware of your surroundings, and do not drink and drive. Again, we strive for safety, but the organizers of this meetup are not held liable for anything that happens.

Mission 5k fun run! | TBD

We host a weekly 5km run every Monday evening, starting and ending at a \*bar in or near the Mission District. We keep a moderate pace so no one runs alone – it's a fun run, not all-out. It is, however, recommended that you are able to run around 3 miles (5Km) consistently but if that's an issue, bring a buddy along or shorten the route to your liking. Join for a drink/snack/chat after the run -- we love to meet our neighbors!
