Publication Type: Individual Paper Abstract: Around the world mother-activism has utilized the symbolic power of motherhood to demand justice and is an alternative to state-centered solutions to violence. Such groups unify women of various backgrounds, garner public support, and capitalize on how the mothering role radicalizes women to intensify their activism and find their voices to advocate for others. New organizations promote mother-activism and mothers have spontaneously formed groups to protest violence within their community. Mother-activism as a social movement can build coalitions around a broader politics of rights when motherhood is defined as a collective experience that transcends race, nationality, religion, and social class.
