Birthing a slave : motherhood and medicine in the antebellum South / by Schwartz, Marie Jenkins,1946-(CARDINAL)214124;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 321-390) and index.Procreation -- Healers -- Fertility -- Pregnancy -- Childbirth -- Postnatal complications -- Gynecological surgery -- Cancer and other tumors -- Freedwomen's health."The deprivations and cruelty of slavery have overshadowed our understanding of the institution's most human dimension: birth. 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.

Garlic & the witch / by Paulsen, Bree,author.;
Garlic loves spending time with Witch Agnes, Carrot, and her new friend, the Count, who has proven to be a delightful neighbor to the village of vegetable people rather than a scary vampire. But despite Agnes's best attempts to home-brew a vegetarian blood substitute for Count, the ingredient she needs most can only be found at the Magic Market, far from the valley. Before she knows it, with a broomstick in hand, Garlic is nervously preparing for a journey. But Garlic is experiencing another change too--finger by finger, she appears to be turning human. Witch Agnes assures her that this is normal for her garden magic, but Garlic isn't so sure that she's ready for such a big change. After all, changes are scary...and what if she doesn't want to be human after all?Ages 8-12

Wannabe : reckonings with the pop culture that shapes me / by Harris, Aisha,author.(CARDINAL)874455;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 273-280).Introduction: Thank you, Rebecca Bunch -- Isn't she lovely -- Blackety-Black -- I'm a cool girl -- Kenny G gets it -- Ebony & Ivory -- This is IP that never ends -- On the procreation expectation -- Parents just don't understand -- Santa Claus is a Black man."In nine lively essays, critc Aisha Harris invites us into the wonderful, maddening process of making sense of the pop culture we consume. Aisha Harris has made a name for herself as someone you can turn to for a razor-sharp take on whatever show or movie everyone is talking about. Now, she turns her talents inward, mining the benchmarks of her nineties childhood and beyond to analyze the tropes that are shaping all of us, and our ability to shape them right back. In the opening essay, an interaction with Chance the Rapper prompts an investigation into the origin myth of her name. Elsewhere, Aisha traces the evolution of the "Black Friend" trope from its Twainian origins through to the heyday of the Spice Girls, teen comedies like Clueless, and sitcoms of the New Girl variety. And she examines the overlap of taste and identity in this era, rejecting the patriarchal ethos that you are what you like. Whatever the subject, sitting down with her book feels like hanging out with your smart, hilarious, pop culture-obsessed friend--and it's a delight"--Publisher.
