Mothers, Mothering and Climate Change

Mothers, Mothering and Climate Change is as much about climate change as it is about the importance of community care and intergenerational justice. Considering climate change and mothering, how do we hold space for seemingly conflicting stories, ones that attempt to document and stall an inevitable end while others focus on new beginnings? Can mothering encompass both conditions, be pulled in opposite directions, and exist within this tension? Are we not, yet again, asking mothers to do it all? In response, this collection answers these questions and explores them in an interdisciplinary anthology that brings together voices of concerned matricentric feminist theorists, researchers, and activists from a wide range of disciplines and fields. These include anthropology, women's and gender studies, cultural studies, literary studies, social sciences and humanities. Creative contributions complement academic writing and include personal essay/reflection, academic essay, memoir, creative non-fiction, diary style, poetry, art, photography, and hybrid genres.
