The Anarcha Archive
Welcome to The Anarcha Archive. I’m J.C. Hallman. This channel is dedicated to the sources for SAY ANARCHA: A Young Woman, a Devious Surgeon, and the Harrowing Birth of Modern Women’s Health.
The book is a dual biography about the so-called “father of gynecology,” J. Marion Sims, and the young, enslaved woman known as Anarcha, the “mother of gynecology,” long thought to have been lost to history.
In short, I found her.
This channel tells the story of how I uncovered Anarcha's story in archives, probate offices, and private manuscript collections. These videos reveal her early life on an Alabama plantation, and follow her all the way to a lonely Virginia gravesite.
A full “illustrated bibliography” of SAY ANARCHA’s nearly 5,000 sources is available at SayAnarcha.com
The Anarcha Archive Youtube Channel is intended as an additional resource. The videos assume some awareness of Anarcha’s contribution to the history of medicine.
SAY ANARCHA is available on Amazon.com.
