We’re two fed-up moms juggling jobs, kids, and the fight against book bans and bigotry. Why should MAGA fear-mongers masquerading as "saviors" decide what we can read? Join Jennifer and Courtney as they amplify the voices of banned book authors and their characters in between mom-ing and trying to survive the capitalist grind of our new Authoritarian America. Visit patreon.com/MILF4Books to become a member of the "MILFia" and join us in fighting for America's freedom to read while unlocking exclusive content.Copyright Courtney Green and Jennifer Mendoza Arte Ciencias Sociales Crianza y Familias Historia y Crítica Literaria Relaciones

  • "Caste" (and why powerful people suck) by Isabel Wilkerson
    May 31 2025
    This episode probably should have been a two-parter but what's done is done. Join Courtney and Jennifer as they spend almost 2 hours diving into the three major "Caste" systems in the world: Karmic reincarnation in India, Aryan Supremacy in the Third Reich, and enslavement in United States (and its present-day effects). Courtney tells Jennifer about the EIGHT pillars of Caste, that Isabel Wilkerson so beautifully and extensively researched as commonalities for Caste systems around the world. In short, read this book for a detailed look into how and why people suck, and what we can do together to not suck so much!

  • The Diary of Anne Frank...and millions of other children
    May 20 2025
    Courtney and Jennifer cover the graphic novel adaptation of Anne Frank, which is banned in multiple states, with one case resulted in the firing of an 8th grade teacher thanks to the hate group, Moms for Liberty. Why? Anne describes a vulva with extensive biological accuracy...You'd think we would be supporting this kind of education considering 61% of people cannot accurately identify a vulva on a diagram. But that's not what this episode is about. It's about the importance of bearing witness through literature—especially when the story belongs to a child whose life was stolen by genocide. It's about connecting the past to the present. Because today, children are still dying in genocides—in the Middle East and Africa. Most notably, in Gaza, where over 100 children are estimated to die each day as the U.S. continues to support Israel's devastating use of force and blockade tactics that amount to starvation and occupation.The death of a child is the death of infinite possibility. We must read these stories. We must teach them. And we must refuse to look away.
