Thank you for the list of formerly-upcoming journals and books from Demeter Press. It gives a taste of what is being disappeared; silenced.

Part of the beauty of ARM is that is is welcoming to “nonacademics”, marginalized academics, and activists as well as to those with university positions. This is essential to the scholarship of mothering–how could it proceed with any integrity otherwise? And how does the world of academic theory portray and understand mothering without this voice? If I look back to the pre-Demeter Press days, I have to say, “mostly not at all; and when it tried, it usually got it all wrong.”

Without an authentic voice of the mother-world, academia does not only get motherhood wrong; it gets humanity wrong. And if we don’t understand this key part of the human experience–the regenerative part–how on earth can we save ourselves?
