This essay examines how Black women have responded to the intervention of the law and the state in their reproductive lives over time. Through the practice of digital archiving, insights about survival, knowledge production, and the nexus between slavery and the twenty-first-century Black maternal health crisis emerge from the possibilities of storytelling.
