Blackstone guest on Cleveland’s ‘The Sound of Ideas’ radio show

Amy Blackstone, a sociology professor at the University of Maine, was a recent guest on “The Sound of Ideas,” a show produced by a National Public Radio affiliate in Cleveland. The show, titled “The Not-Mom Movement,” focused on the decision not to have children. Blackstone researches childfree-by-choice adults and the stigma that surrounds them. She also maintains a blog with her husband titled, “we’re {not} having a baby! childfree adventures in a child-centric world.” The show was held in advance of the NotMom Summit in Cleveland Oct. 9–10. Blackstone is scheduled to speak at the event.
