SUMMARY:SHC September Virtual Lecture: “Abortion Things\, Techniques\, and Technologies in Pre-Roe South Carolina”
DESCRIPTION:SHC Lecturer: Madeleine Ware\nLecture Title: "Abortion Things\, 
 Techniques\, and Technologies in Pre-Roe South Carolina"\n\nPlease join us 
 online for a special SHC virtual-only lecture presented by Madeleine Ware. 
 Ware's talk will examine the techniques and tools of illegal abortions in 
 South Carolina from the late nineteenth-century to Roe v. Wade (1973). By 
 focusing on common items found in households and shops\, such as rubber 
 tubing\, herbs\, and turpentine alongside medical obstetrical objects\, 
 this research uncovers the continuance of centuries of intergenerational 
 technical-medical knowledge in the US South particularly by Black laywomen 
 health providers. In doing so\, this talk reshapes historical 
 understandings of what constitutes medical technologies and expands 
 existing definitions of reproductive healthcare providers.\n\nMadeleine 
 Ware is a PhD candidate in the Program in the History of Science and 
 Medicine at Yale University. Her dissertation\, “Clench and Release: 
 Defining Healthy Womanhood through Pelvic Floor Techniques and 
 Technologies\, 1880s–1950s\,” analyzes the overlapping cultures of 
 beauty\, commercialized fitness\, sexual disability\, and women’s 
 healthcare through a history of pelvic floor strengthening techniques and 
 technologies. She is also committed to examining understudied histories of 
 reproductive healthcare\, technologies\, and justice in her home state\, 
 South Carolina\, as well as in her new home\, Connecticut.\n\nJoin us on 
 September 10th at noon for Ms. Ware's lecture. Once you register\, you will 
 receive a confirmation email with a Zoom link attached.
