The inventor of the speculum, J. Marion Sims, is celebrated as the "father of modern gynecology". Tributes however whitewash the fact that Sims achieved his breakthroughs by experimenting on enslaved African American women. The names of all but three of these women are lost. In Mend, Kwoya Fagin Maples gives voice to these enslaved women.
