Always delightful to read Knisley’s work. I’ve been a fan since I was probably a bit young to read her work but I’m thankful to my mom for introducing me to her. Met her at a signing once (Dark Tower Comics), she drew me some sushi (so cool). I would’ve appreciated a nod of context to Black women’s influence on midwifery and the context of misogynoir in the creation of gynecology and I’m glad she included a detail about Black maternal mortality rates. All in all, a lovely blend of reproductive history and experience which felt like a reassuring hug after a fruitful venting session.
