Mother Tongue #10
Mother Tongue is an interrogation of modern motherhood through inclusive stories about art, sex, pop culture, politics, and food. It’s not about kids or how to parent them: it’s about sharing nuanced, unconventional stories, experiences, and knowledge from multifaceted individuals who happen to be mothers.
In this issue:
Cover star Lucy Liu on ghosts, gravity, and her upcoming art exhibition, Jenny Slate speaks to midlife ambition and her prior lack of imagination around motherhood, and the Sisters of New York nun collective generously share their highest sister, Maryjane, and their advocacy for individuals incarnated for cannabis-related charges. Issue #10 also considers just how large the clitoris really is, just how cruel menstrual inequality is within the US carceral system, and just having kids because Jane Goodall told you to.
