Collins argues that these images are ideological tools used to regulate Black women’s labor, sexuality, and social roles.

Wages Against Housework

Silvia Federici

This classic Marxist feminist text reveals the truth of housework as central to capitalist relations of production. Federici argues that by naturalizing housework as women's 'labor of love,' capitalism obtains massive amounts of unpaid labor. Demanding wages for housework is not about institutionalizing this labor but about politicizing it, exposing capitalism's exploitation of women's labor.
