Candidate Statement: Jackie A.

Queer, feminist, and racial-justice struggles are class struggles, whether in the workplace, the home, or on the streets. As a founding member of the Socialist Feminist Caucus and a member of its current elected leadership, I am committed to an intersectional feminism of the 99%. To me this means reclaiming feminism from neoliberals, fighting the simultaneous oppressions intertwined within capitalism, and reinventing a class-struggle feminism that becomes the platform of the multi-racial and multi-gender working class as a whole. I want to help create an active consciousness within DSA around this class-struggle feminism. This is the perspective I will bring to the convention in August.
