Memos from Motherhood (Or, I Gave Birth During a Pandemic?!)
Memos from Motherhood (Or, I Gave Birth During a Pandemic?!) is a podcast that documents and unpacks the personal and political nuances of becoming parents amidst both a global pandemic, and seismic political, cultural, and environmental change.
It features two friends: Misa, a Black American woman from NYC, and Veena, a South Asian American woman from LA. Trained as anthropologists, they process pandemic parenthood holistically and intersectionally through intimate conversations and voice memos.
