Socialism and Women's Liberation
Socialism 2018
July 05, 2018
With Lillian Cicerchia and Ellie Hamrick
With a rapist in the White House, abortion and reproductive rights under attack, and women's poverty rates rising quickly, the need to win women's liberation is urgent. Yet the way forward is highly contested among feminists of various political and intellectual stripes. This talk explores what socialist theory and history can contribute to our understanding of the origins of women's oppression, the state of women today, and how we can win a world free of gender oppression for all people.
