African American women are often seen as oppressed, but they are much more! Their fight has been central to the fight of all women and the fight of us all. Meet Premilla Nadasen, author of Welfare Warriors and Domestic Workers Unite! Premilla is helping us rethink the role of Black women in our history. But she also helps us see that Black women cracked open the issue of the value of housework, which impacts every one of us. We all have to deal with housework. Either we provide unpaid labor in the home, we expect someone else to do it or we have to pay someone else, so that we can go out and make money ourselves. What is the value of housework? How does it relate to the labor movement? Who is going to take care of the house, the kids and us? How can we work inside and outside the home at the same time? How does welfare relate to housework, and how have black kids been hurt through the racialization of welfare. Women, housework, race and class: This topic will blow your mind. Join us!
