Today’s episode will focus on:

  1. Class and labour organizing
  • We will talk about growing economic inequality and the feminization of poverty.
  • I’ll also discuss the impact of COVID-19 and the concept of a gendered recession or she-cession (though I don’t like that term)
  • I’ll introduce the concept of neoliberalism.
  • We will talk about capitalism and exploitation.
  • The lecture will finish by discussing the role of labour in the university.

    • This podcast is by Dr. Alex Ketchum
