Every Woman Is a Working Woman - Boston Review Silvia Federici interviewed by Jill Richards.

“Instead of providing more services to women, the state has actually reduced access even to the services that were available. Today it is more difficult to get eldercare and childcare than it was at the end of the 1960s.” —Silvia Federici
