Revolutionary Mothering: Love on the Front Lines

Description

An anthology that gives access to the voices of mothers of color and marginalized mothers Revolutionary Mothering: Love on the Frontlines is an anthology that centers mothers of color and marginalized mothers’ voices—women who are in a world of necessary transformation. The challenges faced by movements working for antiviolence, anti-imperialist, and queer liberation, as well as racial, economic, reproductive, gender, and food justice are the same challenges that marginalized mothers face every day. Motivated to create spaces for this discourse because of the authors’ passionate belief in the power of a radical conversation about mothering, they have become the go-to people for cutting-edge inspired work on this topic for an overlapping committed audience of activists, scholars, and writers. Revolutionary Mothering is a movement-shifting anthology committed to birthing new worlds, full of faith and hope for what we can raise up together.

As a 23yr old getting ready to have my first child without much support from the father, reading the amazing stories of these women has totally inspired me and encouraged me that life doesn’t stop with children, it revolutionizes. Review: Must read! - It’s amazing how birth is different for everyone, this book is raw and authentic. Great book ! A great addition to my birth worker collection.
