White Picket Fence S2 E3: What Could Have Been

  • Summary

  • How did the U.S. become a society that treats caregiving as a private family responsibility rather than a public good?

    In this episode, Julie explores the longstanding and continued role racism has played in preventing investments in public goods that would benefit everyone, including caregiving. We’ll also do a deep dive into the 1970s when the U.S. nearly invested in universal childcare -- and how fear was deployed to block it.
