Perilous Passages: Black Infant Death in America
Wangui Muigai
Wangui Muigai traces the long history of infant death in Black America from slavery to the present day, surfacing the root causes, social responses, and enduring myths that have faulted mothers for their children’s deaths. As Muigai reveals, community traditions of caregiving and organizing have sustained and animated Black struggles for survival.
