This documentary sheds light on the heartbreaking struggles faced by Black mothers in their fight to reunite with their children. It's a powerful reminder of the systemic issues that continue to impact families of color disproportionately. Thank you, The New Yorker, for bringing these stories to the forefront.
This breaks my heart. The beaurocracy of CPS isn't set up to help families nor help children. Thank you for using your platform to tell not just Alexis & Kelli's story, moreover to highlight a larger systemic issue that many families are facing. (grammatical edit for clarity)
I’ve met white women who lost and got their children back all in 3 years or less and met black women who had their children taken away with very little reason
If they haven't proven anything in 3 or 4 years and they have completed the myriad of parenting classes and other therapies and they seem to be working I wonder how do you know they were NOT wrongfully accused.

I hope all these mothers can get more ability to reunite their families in future. Thank you for the video.
A government that will do this to the weakest among us is not the land in which I was born.

Why the black and white it doesn’t add any substances to the visuals.
@calicosta I think the point is that it takes away substance, representing the void that the children leave in the lives of these women

This country ha,te,s women
Incredibly moving, powerful picture...until I saw the title card which read "Latinx." Then I realized it was a project of, by, and for white people
Why not mothers fighting to get their kids back? Bc there are mothers of all ethnicities in this situation
What if they actually abused those kids tho? How do we know Alexis was wrongfully accused?

@@puggirl415Hi! I’m the filmmaker. This has been fact-checked. There’s no concrete evidence of abuse.
