Angela Y. Davis
“Socialized housework implies large government subsidies in order to guarantee accessibility to the working-class families whose need for such services is most obvious. Since little in the way of profits would result, industrialized housework—like all unprofitable enterprises—is anathema to the capitalist economy. Nonetheless, the rapid expansion of the female labor force means that more and more women are finding it increasingly difficult to excel as housewives according to the traditional standards. In other words, the industrialization of housework, along with the socialization of housework, is becoming an objective social need. Housework as individual women’s private responsibility and as female labor performed under primitive technical conditions, may finally be approaching historical obsolescence”
Angela Y. Davis, Women, Race, & Class

“There is no losing, only learning

There is no failure, only opportunity

There is no problem, only solutions”
Pitbull

“You take one, then one more, then one more, and so on. The more you take, the more you want to take. It's like you're continually stimulating yourself, increasing your desire, just by looking at that little screen. You want to try it this way and then that.”
Takeshi Nakamoto, Daido Moriyama: How I Take Photographs

“For Black women today and for all their working-class sisters, the notion that the burden of housework and child care can be shifted from their shoulders to the society contains one of the radical secrets of women’s liberation. Child care should be socialized, meal preparation should be socialized, housework should be industrialized—and all these services should be readily accessible to working-class people.”
Angela Y. Davis, Women, Race, & Class
