Jan Tritten interviews Sister MorningStar, author of The Power of Women by Motherbaby Press. In this excerpt, Sister MorningStar tells how Mexican midwife Doña Antonia addressed the fear in a woman during childbirth. Sister goes on to explain that a woman's power comes from the power of birth, whether she has had a child or not "her power is latent in that."
