Launch of Revolutionizing Motherlines Including Chapter by Tina Powell

January 26, 2026

I am thrilled to bring together my two loves — Maternal Theory & Children’s Literature — in a chapter I wrote for Revolutionizing Motherlines.

Titled “Are You My Mother(line),” this chapter draws upon P. D. Eastman‘s classic children’s book. ‘Are You My Mother’ to explore the disrupted and destroyed motherlines of three foster daughters raised in Ontario‘s foster care system during the mid-20th century. Each chapter in this epic collection challenges, explores, and celebrates the wisdom, experiences, stories, and power of maternal lineage. Congratulations and sincere thanks to editors Fiona Joy Green, Victoria Bailey, and Andrea O’Reilly — and publisher Demeter Press!
