OUR MOTHERS, OURSELVES: Lilith Magazine Writers Contemplate Motherhood from Generation to Generation
Lilith is the celebrated Jewish-American feminist publication that has been publishing quarterly since 1976. It has explored a vast range of cutting edge topics and issues including abortion and adoption, body image and eating disorders, deconstructing the JAP stereotype, and new rituals and celebrations.
In this program, several of Lilith's authors will explore how the theme of mothers and motherhood has entered their writing. What issues were they “working through?” How did they depict mothers of previous generations vs. their own generation? Is there a Jewish angle to any of this? And, if they are mothers themselves, how do they imagine being perceived one day by their own children?
