MANCOSA School of Education Academic, Michelle Naude speaks to Stoep Chief Creative and award-winning poet, Megan Ross about how literature promotes STEAM education, innovation and diversity.

“Megan has been intentional and vocal about documenting her mothering journey through her debut anthology of poetry, Milk Fever, and her short story, Farang. The conversation was an eruption of shared joy in creativity and claiming space to create and practice feminist mothering.”

“In a war against women by men, feminist mothering that teaches boys how to give and receive love is a radical political act.”
