Panel Overview

Calling all Star Wars Moms! Mothers are so integral to every aspect of history and storytelling, yet their voices are often overlooked. Through the lens of Star Wars, we will explore the meaning of motherhood and childrearing in the galaxy far far away. What are the stories of mothers in Star Wars? Shmi, Padme, Aunt Beru, Leia… how do their identity as mothers play into the narrative of the Skywalker Saga and beyond? What role do “FanMoms” play in Star Wars and how can their voices be represented and their experiences immersed in the Star Wars Community? Whether you are a mom who is a fan of Star Wars, are the mom of children who love Star Wars, or have a mom, there is a lot to learn from the mothers of the Star Wars!
