How Women Keep the Country from Falling Apart: A Conversation with Professor Jessica Calarco
Esteemed sociology professor, Jessica Calarco, discusses her new book "Holding It Together: How Women Became America's Safety Net." While other countries have an adequate social safety net, with services that include universal childcare, paid leave, and other services, America has instead locked women into this role. In this episode, Professor Calarco discusses how America has historically and systemically locked women into the role of becoming America's default caregivers, and its de facto social safety net.
