This Women’s History Month, we’re wondering: What will it take to achieve a society that prioritizes—and achieves—true equality? Our answers to those questions are the Majority Rules: a series of rules, created by Supermajority, intended to guide us to our ultimate goal of gender equality.

Today, we’re diving into Rule #3, “Our work is valued.” In a world that systemically erases and devalues the work of women, and that of women of color in particular, how can we ensure that our work is valued—especially care work, domestic work and other forms of work that often go unrecognized and are rendered invisible? 

 

Joining us to answer these questions is a very special guest:

Ai-jen Poo. Ai-jen Poo is an American labor leader, president of the National Domestic Workers Alliance and a co-founder of Supermajority. She's also the author of The Age of Dignity: Preparing for the Elder Boom in a Changing America
