The Chicana M(other)work Anthology weaves together emerging
scholarship and testimonios by and about self-identified Chicana
and Women of Color mother-scholars, activists, and allies who
center mothering as transformative labor through an intersectional
lens. Contributors provide narratives that make feminized labor
visible and that prioritize collective action and holistic healing
for mother-scholars of color, their children, and their communities
within and outside academia. The volume is organized in four parts:
(1) separation, migration, state violence, and detention; (2)
Chicana/Latina/WOC mother-activists; (3) intergenerational
mothering; and (4) loss, reproductive justice, and holistic
pregnancy. Contributors offer a just framework for Chicana and
Women of Color mother-scholars, activists, and allies to thrive
within and outside of the academy. They describe a new
interpretation of motherwork that addresses the layers of care work
needed for collective resistance to structural oppression and
inequality. This anthology is a call to action for justice.
Contributions are both theoretical and epistemological, and they
offer an understanding of motherwork through Chicana and Women of
Color experiences.
