The War on Women and the Fightback

It seems that every day there is a new story about State laws restricting reproductive rights or blocking motion towards wage equality.

What is the status of women in the U.S today? What gains have women made over the years and why is there now an increased backlash against women and women’s rights? Who is behind the War on Women and why? Who loses and who benefits from it? What can men and women do today to fightback?

Join us in a phone conference conversation with Carolyn Trowbridge.

    The Communist Party USA is a working class organization founded in 1919 in Chicago, IL.

    The Communist Party stands for the interests of the American working class and the American people. It stands for our interests in both the present and the future. Solidarity with workers of other countries is also part of our work. We work in coalition with the labor movement, the peace movement, the student movement, organizations fighting for equality and social justice, the environmental movement, immigrants rights groups and the health care for all campaign.

    But to win a better life for working families, we believe that we must go further. We believe that the American people can replace capitalism with a system that puts people before profit — socialism.

    We are rooted in our country's revolutionary history and its struggles for democracy. We call for "Bill of Rights" socialism, guaranteeing full individual freedoms.
