Conciousness Raising: History and Practice

Start: Saturday, September 17, 202211:00 AM

"Consciousness Raising" is a powerful tool that uses the sharing of personal experiences and testimony to draw out the political nature of issues that are commonly understood as personal matters. This tactic was used among feminists in the 60s and 70s to help attendees understand the political aspects of housework, reproductive rights, and countless other issues.

How can we, as socialist feminists, use consciousness raising today to fight for reproductive rights and expand access to abortion in Los Angeles County?

Join DSA-LA for an in-person strategy and planning session to discuss what steps we want to take in order to build a mass movement for socialist feminism in LA County. By working together, we can build a movement for reproductive liberation that's rooted in the power of everyday working people. Come out and be part of it!
