Description | Using archaeological materials recovered from a housesite in Mobile, Alabama, Laurie Wilkie explores how one extended African-American family engaged in conflicting ideas about motherhood in the post-Emancipation South. The female head of this household, Lucretia Perryman, turned to midwifery to support her family and as a midwife, became a vehicle for transmitting cultural, social, and political knowledge to a broader African-American community. |
