Summary
In this Mother’s Day episode of Curry Café, hosts Ray Gary and Rick McNamer are joined by guests Billie Ruth Furuichi and Shirley Hyatt to explore the holiday’s origins, from Julia Ward Howe’s peace advocacy to Anna Jarvis’s campaign and Woodrow Wilson’s 1914 proclamation. The conversation examines motherhood’s self-sacrificing nature, evolving family structures, working mothers, cultural variations in parenting, diverse family models, and the “Hallmarkization” that has commercialized what was meant to be a heartfelt celebration.
We encourage anyone with differing views to participate in future Curry Café discussions. If you would like to join the panel, email contact@kciw.org or call 541-661-4098.
