Glenn Response
In Glenn article "from servitude to service work" Glenn describes the division of labor based on gender, and also concentrates on race. Building on the Kessler Harris essay and even citing Kessler Harris several times Glenn says that gender and race are not two seperate catogories but are connected and build off each other when it comes to the further stratification of labor. Glenn also build on social reproduction of labor which has been mentioned before. When Glenn focused so much on race as a reason for the division of labor , I thought that the reason for this was economic class struture with lower classes taking up the divison of labor as opposed to a certain race. With better and higher salary jobs going to those who are qualified to do them
