Mom Rage and Modern Motherhood: Author Talk and Workshop

Sunday, February 4 @ 4:30 pm - 5:45 pm

“Dubin reminds us that our darkest moments are symptoms of systemic failings, not signs of personal flaws–and that our anger should be harnessed as an animating force for equity.” – Angela Garbez, author of Essential Labor: Mothering as Social Change 

Besides runny noses and obsessing about your child’s sleep, motherhood sometimes feels like it is 90% list-making. In 2023, Minna Dubin published the internationally acclaimed book Mom Rage: The Everyday Crisis of Modern Motherhood, inspired by a list about her rage she wrote six years earlier. In this special interactive discussion, Minna will share her original list that marked the beginning of her own transformation with mom rage and help you uncover your own big feelings about parenthood–and what to do about it. Books will be available for purchase on-site from Transom! Wine and cheese will be served, and childcare through Kidspace is available.

Minna Dubin is the author of MOM RAGE: The Everyday Crisis of Modern Motherhood. Her writing has been featured in the New York Times, Oprah Daily, Salon, Parents, Romper, The Forward, and elsewhere. Minna has become a leading feminist voice on the topic of mom rage, appearing on MSNBC, Good Morning America, The Tamron Hall Show, NPR, and the BBC Woman’s Hour. She lives in Berkeley with her husband, two kids, and no pets because enough is enough.

This event is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
