In a struggle against the right opportunism of AF3IRM's leadership--a US-based, women's organization that focuses particularly on the violence of the sex trade--numerous members split from the organization and now aim to start a new, revolutionary proletarian feminist organization. Gigi, Feroz, Esperanza and Jacqui join me to discuss the failures of AF3IRM's leadership and what a new proletarian feminist organization might look like.

Read the summation and criticism here!

Questions:

1. What was the fundamental two line struggle that emerged within AF3IRM?
2. What are some of the ways in which right opportunism is manifested within both AF3IRM and SEIU?
3. How could a scientific, materialist and communist analysis of nationality and race have prevented AF3IRM's mishandling of questions that arose internally around white supremacy and membership?
4. How do we combat economism while also linking up with the masses in the day-to-day struggles, whether it be in a women's organization or a labor organization?
5. What does keeping politics in command mean to you?
6. In light of the errors of leadership being bourgeois commandism and ultra-democracy, what does correct leadership look like?
7. What's the purpose of internal and open line struggle?
8. What does critiquing choice feminism beyond the sex trade look like?
9. Why must all of our organizations center class struggle in our fight against all forms of exploitation and oppression?
