Women Hold Everything Together. What If We Stopped?
Manage episode 423028266 series 3487752
Other countries have social safety nets. America has women. We are holding it all together at the seams even as we are often falling apart. Today I am talking to the brilliant sociologist Jessica Calarco about her new book Holding it Together. We talk about how the United States leans on the unseen and unappreciated labor of women to keep the country running. We can no longer accept that as the default. Women’s labor is the reason we’ve gone so long without the support systems that our peer nations take for granted because women’s work maintains the illusion that we don’t need a net. We also dive into the popularity of #tradwives and how it relates to all of this.
