Abstract
The chapter engages in womanist musings to critically examine the intertwining of race, class, and gender within the realm of motherhood. Employing the rhetorical tool of “snips” to “read” intersectional experiences, the author underscores the significance of the public library and motherhood as institutions of meaning-making in the realm of knowledge production, which is essential to womanist work. The chapter illuminates the ways in which the COVID-19 pandemic has laid bare the complexities of navigating public spaces within private realms and vice versa. Overall, this chapter offers an insightful examination of the interplay between race, class, and gender, within motherhood, emphasizing the pivotal role of public libraries in supporting mothers in pursuit of knowledge production, meaning-making, and empowerment.
