Think about your own relationship to capitalism in the United States.

Have you been successful in the market place?  Why or why not?

What are your goals for your career? Are you confident you will reach those goals?

Finally, what would a feminist economy look like so that nobody is exploited? 

Capitalism is known to be explosive and oppressive we know this because of the relationship that there is in regards to power in between the owner of the factors of production and those who sell their labor. There’s people who get paid less than the wage they are supposed to, matter fact the owners undermine the value contribution that is being made.

What was brought to my attention was that there was gender inequality plaguing the society. Feminism want economic freedom but what not everyone knows is that capitalism promotes individualism over collective action.

I feel like when it comes to marketplace it can be a bit difficult to do everything on your own specially of you don’t know what you’re doing. What is recently seen is that big brands like appropriating an aesthetic of feminism, trying to use the word feminism as a title to get more customers. However, in the supply chain about 350 women were hospitalized because of extreme fatigue from poor working conditions.  

My goals for my career are to make connections and that’s what I been hearing constantly to get there, on the top. Whenever I think about it though, it scares me because I question myself in regards of what the steps are to get there besides the connections. With what money?  What job would I currently have while trying to make it in the forensic field? Would it be a good paying job that will make me afford all my equipment or would it be a job that is somewhat related to the career? 

I must ad it that there are times I feel like I will not be able to reach these goals because the field is very competitive but not only that but there a small percentage of Hispanic females working as a forensic. What concerns me is the connections that people advise me to make now, how would I be able to if the people around me are in the same level as me. The experts won’t allow someone to go to a forensic laboratory unless they have some type of experience or background knowledge, have taken a college forensic class. Apart from being challenged is the  competition around me, but remembering what Dalia Gebrial said about “woman not being able to be free until they defeat race oppression and fight class oppression” is something that keeps me humble.
