Emily Callaci and Sarah Leonard speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2025.
Join historian Emily Callaci for a timely exploration of an often overlooked movement for economic and social justice: the Wages for Housework movement demanded wages for domestic labor as a starting point for remaking the world as we know it. Drawing on the campaign's 1970s roots in the US, Italy, and Britain, Callaci will discuss the revolutionary potential of this radical movement and its lessons for today's feminist organizers.
The next Socialism Conference will be held in Chicago, September 4-7, 2026. Learn more about the Socialism Conference at www.socialismconference.org.
