We often don't realize that after the United States stopped importing slaves in 1808, births were more important than ever; slavery and the southern way of life could continue only through babies born into bondage. Birthing a slave depicts the competing approaches to reproductive health that evolved on plantations, as both black women and white men sought to enhance the health of enslaved mothers--in very different ways and for entirely different reasons."--Page 4 of cover. 650 0 Childbirth |zSouthern States |xHistory |y19th century. |=^A1183 650 0 Obstetrics |zSouthern States |xHistory |y19th century. |=^A598 650 0 Gynecology |zSouthern States |xHistory |y19th century. |=^A1419 650 0 Motherhood |zSouthern States |xHistory |y19th century. |=^A141483 650 0 Reproductive health |zSouthern States |xHistory |y19th century. |=^A470413 650 0 Enslaved women |xHealth and hygiene |zSouthern States |xHistory |y19th century. |=^A671249 650 0 Enslaved women |xMedical care |zSouthern States |xHistory |y19th century. |=^A671249 650 0 African American women |xHealth and hygiene |zSouthern States |xHistory |y19th century. |=^A989867 650 0 African American women |xMedical care |zSouthern States |xHistory |y19th century. |=^A23816 650 0 Medicine |zSouthern States |xHistory |y19th century. |=^A788 650 2 Maternal Health Services |xhistory. |=^A1032856 650 2 Obstetrics |xhistory. |=^A923507 650 2 Reproductive Behavior |xhistory. |=^A1001664 949 WQ 11 AA1 S399b 2006 |hHSL70 |i31740082740758 |p$22.30 |ohjh 994 C0 |bNEH 096 WQ 11 AA1 |bS399b 2006 596 4 998 5015364
