🌸 The Right to Breastfeed: One Mother, One Brick, One Act of Courage 🌸

 🌸 The Right to Breastfeed: One Mother, One Brick, One Act of Courage 🌸

This World Breastfeeding Week, meet the brave Musahar women of Varanasi’s brick kilns who are reclaiming their right to breastfeed — building a healthier future for their children against all odds.

🔥 Amidst scorching heat, gruelling labour, and systemic discrimination, these mothers are asserting that breastfeeding is not just nourishment — it’s dignity, agency, and power.

🤱 “Brick-making can wait, but my baby cannot,” said Kajal (name changed), as she stood up to her supervisor and chose her newborn’s well-being over productivity — a quiet revolution in the heart of oppression.

🤝 Thanks to the work of CRY – Child Rights and You and JanMitra Nyas (JMN), more mothers are now accessing institutional deliveries, timely vaccinations, and nutritional support — even while migrating.
