No Country for Mothers: No Country for Mothers explores the culture surrounding American motherhood and why both the ‘girl boss” and “trad wife” labels ultimately distract us from the real issue: the lack of support for American families. Following activist Reshma Saujani, the film charts a growing national movement to reunite moms across divisions and win the kind of historic support families actually need. The evening includes time to mingle beforehand with snacks and beverages, the film itself, and a conversation afterward for questions and reflection. Sponsored by Golan Christie Taglia and BARTESIAN Moms First: Moms First is a movement fighting for paid leave and affordable, accessible child care. We educate, innovate, and advocate for the social and political policies that moms need and deserve. Our vision is a country that values motherhood and works in support of moms and families.
