Politics. Also the development of the womens Space Program in the 1940s and 50s. And this weekend, tamara drought will talk about americas new working class and their potential political power. She is in conversation with democracy nows amy goodman. We have a deep and long history in this country of undervaluing work that involves serving people and especially caring for people. So we now have a working class that is much more female and much more people of color than the industrial working class was.
