Freedom to Care: Dialogues on Incarceration & Motherhood
Mothers are the fastest growing demographic in the US prison system, and kids of imprisoned parents make up the fourth largest “school district” in the country. In this conversation of care, panelists will share their personal experiences and consider the constraints, complexities and ingenuities they encountered with carceral motherhood.
This program is co-presented with the Anthropology of Motherhood project, which seeks to engage in the complex, varied aspects and experiences of motherhood, caregiving, parenting, nurturing, and maternal labor. Using a maternal lens as a starting point, the project seeks to expand upon the idea of a broader culture of care and its possibilities as it intersects with feminism, social justice issues, and activism in the invaluable work of our panelists.
The panel will feature Sarah Shotland, Sara Tang, and Flan Flaherty, with more panelists to be announced. ASL interpretation will be provided.
