  • Resisting the Tradwife Turn
    Emily Janakiram and Megan Lessard speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2023. This session was sponsored by NYC for Abortion Rights: https://abortionrights.nyc.
    The last decade has seen the rise of a “pro-life feminist” movement that has been instrumental in the overturning of Roe v. Wade and the passage of anti-trans legislation. Pro-life feminists position abortion as violence towards women which serves men and bosses, gesturing towards the real failures of liberal feminism to secure material gains for poor and working class women and advancing a "pro-family, pro-labor" agenda that casts abortion, feminism, and sexual liberty as neoliberal, capitalist innovations which exploit women and alienate them from their supposedly innate desire to raise children and maintain the domestic sphere. This discussion will unpack the terrain of this emergent movement and its effects within the anti-abortion movement as a whole, and describe how socialist feminism can and must counter it in a post-Dobbs world.
