## Resource

This is the first in our new series: We Read a Book! In an age of AI summaries, reading is a revolutionary act so we are reading books that can tell us something about this moment we are in and how to build the feminist future we want. In this episode, we talk to Carolyn McConnell, author of Motherhood Discounted: Carework in America Before and After Roe. Have a listen, learn something, and read the book!
