Virtual Consciousness-Raising on COVID-19

May 24, 2020 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm EDT

Sunday, May 24, 3:00 PM ET (2:00 PM CT; 12:00 PM PT) via Zoom (RSVP here)

Join our Consciousness-Raising meetings (CR) where women answer questions using examples from their personal lives, then the group uses these personal testimonies to draw conclusions about the political root of women’s so-called “personal” problems.

We'll be answering the following questions:

How is COVID-19 affecting you? Specifically, how has the COVID shelter in place mandate affected you? Has sexism or racism affected your labor demands (roles, amount of care work)? What support do you need? What support do you have? How will this affect your life moving forward?
