Dr. Harriet Fraad

Harriet Fraad shares her expertise on Women's Spaces Radio about the intersection of personal life with economic and political life, issues surrounding women's labor, and the societal implications of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). Dr. Fraad discusses the occupational segregation that undervalues women's traditional roles and the impact this has on wages and recognition of women's work. The conversation highlights the decline in birth rates, the shift in family structures, and the political motivations behind the opposition to abortion rights. Dr. Fraad advises the importance of unity across social movements to advocate for collective rights and the necessity of forming alliances to tackle issues like the ERA and workplace equality. Throughout the interview, there is a strong call to acknowledge and leverage the solidarity among diverse groups for achieving progress in women's rights.
