Women are going on strike March 8th!
In the spirit of #womenstrikeus, join Red Bloom Sunday Feb. 26 at Unnameable Books to read and discuss “Domestic Workers’ Rights, the Politics of Social Reproduction, and New Models of Labor Organizing” by Premilla Nadasen and “The Negro Woman Domestic Worker in Relation to Trade Unionism” by Esther Cooper Jackson.
As we prepare for the #womensstrikeus on March 8th, it is vital to build an all-encompassing understanding of the role of gender and gender oppression in Capitalism. Through studying the experiences and self activity of the workers highlighted in these two pieces, we can both further analyze the ways in which white supremacy and race help organize social reproduction, and also expand our understanding of workers’ organizing and of what industries can be organized.
