This issue of Martens' political mamazine discusses family and collectivism. She provides excerpts about how family life, race, and class affect children by such authors as Germaine Greer, and talks about how poverty and school achievement are also affected. There is also a treatise on collective mothering and daycare as a profession provided by the Lesbian and Feminist Mothers Political Action Group in Vancouver.

Work Description

China Martens started her pioneering mamazine The Future Generation in 1990. She was a young anarchist punk rock mother who didn't feel that the mamas in her community had enough support, so she began publishing articles on radical parenting in an age before the internet. This anthology of her zine was first distributed in 2007 and has been out of print. Covering 16 years, The Future Generation uses individual issues as chapters, focusing on personal writing, and retaining the character of a zine that changed over the years--from her daughter's birth to teenagehood and beyond. Though first published in the 1990s, many of the essays and observations--about parenting, children, and surviving in a hostile political climate--still ring true today. PM Press is proud to present a 10th-anniversary edition including a new afterword by China's grown daughter.
