Full details:
For millennia, grandmothers, sisters, aunts, friends and strangers have taken on the responsibility of mothering, especially in response to difficult events in children's' lives. These women's challenges and triumphs have gone unnoticed. This presentation includes a lecture and discussion on Marguerite's new book, Mothers in all but Name.
