No Country for Mothers: Documentary Film Screening
Date/Time
Location
Welles Gallery (18 Main Street, Lenox, MA 01240, Lenox MA)
Join us for a free screening of No Country for Mothers, a documentary exploring the culture wars 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.
After the screening, share in an honest conversation led by mothers:

The culture wars have divided us — this is how we come back together.
