Ellen Bravo on the Melissa Harris Perry Show

Valuing Women’s Work

Ellen Bravo discusses how women’s work is valued in the United States and the public policies that promote family values.

“Unlike Rush, I like to start with the facts […]  The United States is one of four countries in the entire world where women don’t have paid maternity leave.”

“My husband and I raised two sons and we tried so hard to train them to only get sick when it was convenient.  For many people, it’s not just a problem, it’s  a crisis.”
