Stephanie Mills made headlines in the Spring of 1969 when she vowed, in her commencement address (titled The Future is a Cruel Hoax), to conceive no children. "Our days as a race on this planet are, at this moment, numbered," she proclaimed, "and the reason for our finite, unrosy future is that we are breeding ourselves out of existence." In this 2010 interview, Stephanie reflects on the life she has led and the important decision she made at the age of twenty-two. She shares insight about "the 500-year war on subsistence," and the dumbing down of discourse about overpopulation.
