Socialist Feminism: Introduction to Alexandra Kollontai

In this debut episode of our new theory and history series on Socialist Feminism, the gang begins with an introduction on Russian socialist revolutionary, politician, diplomat, Marxist theoretician, and overall badass Alexandra Kollontai. There is a brief discussion of her incredible life and we also discuss her 1909 work The Social Basis of the Woman Question, where she makes a break from the liberal feminism of her day to establish the foundation for a Marxist and socialist feminism. Tune in to know more!
