It's not all rainbows and girl boss feminism - in this Women's History Month special for 2024, I take a deep dive into the history of International Women's Day, first founded around 1911, and how working women's needs have not always matched up to the ideals around bourgeois, capitalist, feminist standards. I trace the history of how motherhood ideals and the way in which parenting is structured under neoliberalism means all working people - men and women - but especially mothers - are being taken for a ride by those at the top. A Marxist-feminist take on IWD. The perfect way back into my podcast after having my daughter - and a mental breakdown - in 2021.
