Elina Penner impressively shows us how deeply rooted classism is in our society - and how often the perspectives of mothers with migration experience remain invisible. Their concerns, hopes and struggles are barely heard, even though they give their all every day to give their children a better future.
The prevailing patriarchal dominance excludes many - especially those who sacrifice themselves so that their families are well. There needs to be more space for the voices and stories of all mothers.
"Who actually said we have to do everything alone?" - This quote from Elina Penner's book Migrant Mom is a powerful reminder that we should question inflated expectations and focus on community and relief.
Elina, thank you for being part of our campaign and fighting for justice and visibility! ❤️
