  • Maid (Questions)
    Maid (Questions) 1. What do you think of Stephanie Land? 2. What was Land's family background? How, in particular, would you describe her parents and the effect they may have had (or not have had) on the direction of her life? 3. What does this memoir reveal to you about life on the edge—or smack in the middle—of poverty? Consider the humiliations, the fears and anxieties, even hopelessness, and the exhaustion, both physical and mental, of Land's situation. How common do you think her experiences are? To what extent do you believe her poverty was due to her own poor choices? 4. Talk about the rules of the bureaucracy that poor people face when attempting to find assistance. Should those rules be made intentionally difficult in order to discourage their abuse? Or do the rules appear designed purposely to keep poor people mired in poverty? 5. What do you think of Jamie and his threats to apply for custody of Mia? 6. Talk about the ways in which Maid highlights the discrepancies between rich and poor? 7. What is your take-away from reading Land's memoir? Is it an eye-opener, or does it confirm your ideas of life under poverty? https://www.litlovers.com/reading-guides/non-fiction/11446-maid-land?start=3 Maid (About the Author) • Birth—ca. 1979 ​ • Where—Pacific Northwest, USA ​ • Education—B.A., University of Montana ​ • Currently—lives in Missoula, Montana ​ Stephanie Land was raising a toddler alone in Washington state, making low wages in an exhausting job as a maid, supplemented by public assistance.

  • AAUW FALLS CHURCH FLASH Volume 70, Number 4 April 2, 2020
    AAUW FALLS CHURCH FLASH Volume 70, Number 4 April 2, 2020 Co- Presidents’ Message Dear All, These are tough times. It is difficult for everyone, and more so for some. That’s the simple truth, but there are a few good things happening. I’m meeting neighbors who I’ve never seen before (from a 6-foot distance) out for a walk with the entire family. (Like 1959!) I’m cooking a little more, and most of it is healthy fuel. The main benefit — I (Sharon) am learning to use more of today’s technology and enjoying the connection, entertainment and wealth of information it brings to our lives in our homes. How about you? We all live in Virginia, so we all know that AAUW activities at the branch level that require person-to-person contact have been cancelled or deferred to whenever the stay-home order and social distancing guidance are lifted, and collectively, we feel safe gathering. Book sorting, book collection and the book sale are deferred. The May Scholarship meeting is deferred or cancelled. The Board is continuing to discuss with the Scholarship Committee the number of completed applications, and how and when to award the scholarships. At this time, the June meeting/picnic is tentatively on hold, and is likely to be held online. Recent decisions: Current officers will summarize their activities (July 1, 2019 – June 30, 2020) in a final annual report and their reports will be distributed to you for your information. The deadline to apply on behalf of a local program for a Special Award has passed.

  • Unmothering Black Women: Formula Feeding As an Incident of Slavery
    FREEMAN-69.6(DO NOT DELETE) 8/19/2018 2:33 PM Unmothering Black Women: Formula Feeding as an Incident of Slavery ANDREA FREEMAN* Laws and policies that impede Black mothers’ ability to breastfeed their children began in slavery and persist as an incident of that institution today. They originated in the practice of removing enslaved new mothers from their infants to work or to serve as wet nurses for slave owners’ children. The stereotype of the bad Black mother justified this separation. This trope also underlies racial disparities in breastfeeding rates in the present. The mythical Mammy loved the White children under her care but callously neglected her own. Today, the Welfare Queen reproduces for the sole purpose of gaming the system. Collective belief in the existence of the bad Black mother leads to low or no investment in resources for Black mothers who want to breastfeed, and to laws and policies that inhibit their opportunities to do so. Black infants and mothers suffer from related health conditions, including infant mortality, at disproportionately and unacceptably high rates. Structural reforms grounded in constitutional principles are necessary to reverse this manifestation of food oppression. * Many thanks for invaluable comments and support of this project go to Angela P. Harris, Robin A. Lenhardt, Bennett Capers, Charles Lawrence III, Ian Haney Lopez, Devon Carbado, Priscilla Ocen, Angela Onwuachi-Willig, Mario Barnes, Lisa Ikemoto, Osagie Obasogie, Bertrall Ross, Maya Manian, Lea Shaver, Zach Nguyen, Julie DeVries and to my fierce, dedicated, and brilliant Research Assistants Mykie Ozoa, Rochelle Sugawa, Tatiana Robinson, Jasmine Dave, and Sarah Williams.

  • Poverty Learning Center
    Poverty Learning Center RESOURCES ON POVERTY WELCOME Poverty is a common thread across the lives of the children and families involved in the child welfare system. Its impact can have deep and long lasting impact and consequences. In most states, neglect cannot be established if failure to provide for a child’s needs is due only to poverty. Poverty may still contribute to neglect indirectly. For example, a poor family may lack necessary resources to buffer other risks. Did you know?: • Children from poor households are also more likely to suffer from chronic health conditions, including asthma, diabetes, hearing, vision and speech delays. • Low-income families are at a disproportionately high risk of child maltreatment, and living in poverty is associated with poor parenting and child outcomes. • Income instability is shown to be negatively associated with school engagement in adolescents and positively associated with suspensions and expulsions. • Poverty is seen as a significant obstacle for families involved with the child welfare system. The Poverty Learning Center is tool to support you in exploring the relationship between poverty and child abuse and neglect, and the resources available to the children and families we serve. Please add it to your advocacy toolkit. Included are links to academic institutions and organizations working in the field of poverty, books, documentaries, and podcasts. While this is not a comprehensive list, we have thoughtfully vetted these resources. Thank you for your willingness to expand your knowledge, particularly about topics that may affect the children and families we serve. This resource will be updated periodically. ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS AND ORGANIZATIONS Ascend at the Aspen Institute Ascend at the Aspen Institute is the national hub for breakthrough ideas and collaborations that move children and the adults in their lives to educational success, economic security, and health and well-being.
