Fulkerson Dikuua, Kelly Jo. [Un]informed Consent: Eugenics, Forced Sterilization and Medical Violence in the Jim Crow United States and Apartheid Southern Africa. ProQuest Dissertations Publishing, 2019.
Fulkerson Dikuua unpacks the lengthy history of eugenic thought as it pervaded biomedical sciences in 17th century America and later. She focuses on the impact of psuedo-sciences like race science on the study of medicine. While valuable information was gathered in the process of exploiting enslaved Black women, the process was unethical and supported by untrue notions of the capacity for Black bodies to experience pain, which has created ramifications that the modern medical industry is still working with. This source is valuable for proving the interconnectedness of eugenic thought and medical violence through history and in the modern day. I can defend the idea that medical violence towards Black women stems from early eugenic thought with this dissertation.

Smith, Candis Watts. Black Mosaic: The Politics of Black Pan-Ethnic Diversity. New York, New York University Press, 2016.
This source addresses the many demographics that identify as Black and why there has been inconsistencies with who identifies with it historically. It uses a sociological approach to examine the factors that impact someone's self-identification on the census. I could use this to explore x, y, and z with my project. This source will set up historical context and lay the groundwork for my sociological analysis of how social attitudes impact society.

“Why Are Black Infant Mortality Rates so High in the U.S.?” Www.youtube.com, www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1bd8b9UvwE.
This video seeks to answer the question of why Black infant mortality rates are so high in the US by examining the medical care that Black patients receive. Multiple professionals speak on their experiences at different stages in receiving care when one is pregnant: checking in, getting settled, getting prepared, the delivery, and the aftercare. I can use this source to give a broad overview of the issue while suggesting that it is the medical system, rather than the Black patients, that are the source of the problem.
