Universal child care is a winnable fight — but it’s not a new one. Feminists have fought for it since the 1960s, including as a central demand of the 1970 Women’s Strike for Equality.

Join NWL for a five-week study group on Feminism’s Forgotten Fight: The Unfinished Struggle for Work and Family by Kirsten Swinth.

In this guided study, we’ll look at how care work was pushed to the margins of the fight for women’s liberation, what that history can tell us about today’s fight, and how activists are working to win free, universal child care now.
Each session will include discussion of the assigned reading and a consciousness-raising on the topics discussed.

The book is available through Harvard University Press, used from thriftbooks.com, and many libraries.

If getting a copy is a barrier, email us at nwl@womensliberation.org — we can help with this and with sliding scale registration.

We look forward to doing this reading with you!
