This is an interview conducted with M.E. O’Brien, a leading voice of revolutionary queer politics, gender, and communist theory. The interview explores her concept of family abolition through a Marxist-feminist and queer lens, tracing its historical trajectory within capitalism and socialist movements. O’Brien discusses her influences, the arguments presented in her influential essay “To Abolish the Family,” and the potential of collectivizing care beyond traditional family structures. She examines the historical complexities of family politics in different contexts, including the Soviet Union, as well as the impact of immigration policies on marginalized communities in the U.S., among other key topics.
