@alissaquart.bsky.socialBarbara died four years ago today. I miss her every day. She also wrote her classic book Nickel and Dimed 25 years ago. This makes our latest piece by @economichardship.bsky.social and @thenation.com on Barbara Ehrenreich's legacy all the more salient. Please read @deirdreenglish.bsky.social
