CAPITAL VS. WOMEN

The decimation of organized labor and the rise of the gig economy have stripped many American women of worker protections and made them more vulnerable to workplace sexual abuse. Socialist feminists and union members were early leaders in the fight to end sexual harassment, because they understood it as something that the economically powerful did to the economically vulnerable. This vulnerability extends far beyond the workplace. The cure for sexual harassment lies in building a society in which women never have to depend on one man, or one job, for survival.
