"Monumental. . . . An important contribution to the literature of civil rights, reproductive issues, racism and feminism." -San Francisco Chronicle
In 1997, this groundbreaking book made a powerful entrance into the national conversation on race. In a media landscape dominated by racially biased images of welfare queens and crack babies, Killing the Black Body exposed America's systemic abuse of Black women's bodies. From slave masters' economic stake in bonded women's fertility to government programs that coerced thousands of poor Black women into being sterilized as late as the 1970s, these abuses pointed to the degradation of Black motherhood-and the exclusion of Black women's reproductive needs in mainstream feminist and civil rights agendas.
"Compelling. . . . Deftly shows how distorted and racist constructions of black motherhood have affected politics, law, and policy in the United States." -Ms.
