Work is enormously powerful and something we do every single day. Under capitalism, we must work to survive and that work can be stultifying, overwhelming and even painful. It can also be a source of pride.

As women, we know about hard work. We work hard at our jobs and then work even harder to keep our homes organized and care for our children and elders. This "second shift" is not recognized by the capitalist system. In fact, this form of "women's work"is devalued.

Join us as we study the latest issue of Breaking the Chains, "Working to Survive, Struggling for Dignity" and explore the relationship between work and women in the capitalist society.
