Pride
The World Mother Storytelling Project presented a unique celebration of Pride and the LGBTQ community with stories of mothers and their children in partnership with the Town Hall of New York City.
The stories will take you on a journey across the world, including Mexico and Iran. You will hear from:
- Transgender woman, Pooya Mohseni, and her mother
- Artist Luis Enrique Garcia from Oaxaca and his mother
- Archival footage of AIDS activists from the 1990s telling stories about their mothers
- LIVE guests, a family consisting of two moms Enid and Doris Karpeh-Diaz and their adult kids Gabriel Suarez and Jessica Suarez
Mother’s Day
This enlightening Mother’s Day Event was led by Murray Nossel, founder and director of World Mother Storytelling Project and co-creator of the Narativ listening and storytelling method.
Over the course of this 2-hour event viewers learned how to listen without judgment, opinion or preconception; how to interview their mothers to gather their stories using Narativ’s unique methodology; and how to take the raw material collected to create a compelling story. Even if your mother is no longer in this world, you can learn to tell her story from reconstructed memories that live on.
Mothers Rising
In this special event, Mothers Rising, we listen to stories of mothers who’ve turned personal loss and tragedy into a devoted effort to be of service to others, told by their children. The event will also feature stories from Mothers, and performances from various artists.
