@chu_youngmin responds: "I think we have to interrogate 'choice' - socialization takes place from the moment a child is born. Forces in the family, outside the family, drive boys and girls, women and men, towards some kinds of activities, and not others.”

Some highlights from our Who Cares? report release 🧵

[Center on Women, Gender & Public Policy @cwgpp]

@chu_youngmin shares that a conservative estimate of unpaid care work in Minnesota is $88.1 billion per year. If it were included, unpaid care work would account for nearly 18% of the MN’s total GDP.

[Center on Women, Gender & Public Policy @cwgpp]

“Because unpaid labor is disproportionately done by women [60%], accounting for unpaid work in GDP is important to promote gender equality- it’s a way of recognizing and valuing this unpaid work.” - @chu_youngmin

[Angela Davis @AngelaDavisMPR]
