A History of Birth with D'Anne Graham

D'Anne Graham is an independent scholar of the social history of medicine focusing on women's health. In this episode we talk about the history of birth in the United States beginning with the rise of male-dominated medicine as a profession. Together, we debunk some popular myths about birth and explore how attitudes and power dynamics of the 19th and 20th century continue to influence our birth landscape today.
