This was an actual “global” panel with scholarly work on the US’s transnational political funding, South Korea, India, Kenya and Ukraine. We learned that more sociologists need to weigh in on the topic of “backlash!” We have lots to say. Thanks @isabelggpike for this framing!

Drawing on a fuller version of how we ended up in our current neoliberal gender order will revitalize our imaginations so we can advance a path out and into a fairer future.
