This book examines the historical endeavors to regulate Black female sexuality and reproduction in the United States, through methods of exploitation, control, repression, and coercion. To that end, this book further explores the continued impact of labeling and stereotyping on the development of policies that lead to the construction of national, racial, and gender identities for Black women.
