Mother State – Helen Charman

Chapelfield

What does it mean to be a mother? Why does being a mum change the way the society sees you, and the way you move through the world?

Helen Charman is here with a new manifesto for motherhood. She’s ready to make a radical case for what liberated mothering could be.

This event travels from the 1970s to the 2010s, from the policing of breastfeeding to the cost of childcare, from Women’s Liberation to austerity, and introduces us to the communities that believe to nourish your children, you have to nourish the world around them.

Join this event and discover how to mother is a political act, and how motherhood is a state of a possibility.
