Caregiving Toward Abolition: Workshop and Story Circles

Migrant Sex Workers Against Fascism: Lessons from 150 Years of Resistance

Chanelle Gallant, Elene Lam, Emi Koyama, and Yves Tong Nguyen speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2025. Travel bans, ICE abductions and deportations of green card holders are nothing new for migrants in the sex industry. But their lives and struggles also offer us a blueprint for resisting surveillance, criminalization and the “good immigrant” vs “bad immigrant” division. Instead they inspire us to transform fear and uncertainty into creativity, power, empathy and noncompliance. The next Socialism Conference will be held in Chicago, September 4-7, 2026.

Bottom Up for Liberation: An Anti-Imperialist Strategy for our Movement

Sal Ami, Rebecca John, Carl Redwood, and Sara Roschdi speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2025. This session was sponsored by Bottom Up for Liberation. We are an emerging cadre formation of social movement leftists, growing out of the LeftRoots process. Too often internationalism is an obligatory footnote to local and electoral struggles--but for us, anti-imperialism is essential to our daily and long-term work to win ecofeminist socialism, from our communities to the world.

The Struggle for Collective Liberation: Class, Oppression, and the Politics of Resistance

Jesse Sharkey, Eric Maroney, and Donna Murch speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2025. This session was sponsored by Spectre Journal. In order to build an effective resistance to Trump’s intensified attacks, we must combine the fight against oppression—including against the right's racist attacks, and its transphobia—with the struggle to build resistance to exploitation in the workplace. In this panel, we will discuss attacks by the right and the Trump administration, and strategies to fight back that effectively combine struggles against exploitation and oppression.

Caregiving Toward Abolition: Workshop and Story Circles

Nadine Naber and Maya Schenwar speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2025. Caregiving is an integral part of movements for liberation. In this moment of rising fascism, it's especially crucial to uplift this care work, including care for children. Supporting young people and each other in concrete, material ways, day to day and hour to hour, is an essential component of resistance. In this workshop, we will engage with these themes, informed by the anthology We Grow the World Together: Parenting Toward Abolition. We'll also offer an opportunity to be part of a circle in which we'll share stories of caregiving in a supportive space. The next Socialism Conference will be held in Chicago, September 4-7, 2026.
