Throughout American history, our government and society at large have attempted to control the black woman's body--from the antebellum master's economic stake in the fertility of bonded women to the 1990's suggestion of laws to prevent women on welfare from having babies. Yale and Harvard graduate Dorothy Roberts' presents an impassioned indictment of this dehumanizing policy.
