  7. 'Lewis takes up a debate with several Black feminists who have, at various times, questioned the idea of family abolition, whose central argument has been that, very often, Black families have been sites of resistance against racism. Similarly, we could point to many experiences of class struggle in which sectors of working families have played a key role against the attacks of capital: supporting strikes, establishing relations of solidarity between factories and neighborhoods, staging rent strikes, maintaining soup kitchens, creating movements in defense of public services, and many other forms of resistance. The tradition of “women’s commissions” in strikes, for example, has allowed the working class to articulate fighting forces far beyond the workplace.

    'To this criticism Lewis responds that, even so, we should not cease working for the abolition of the family, since we would not need its “protective shield” if we managed to build a society without racism. The argument contains a grain of truth, but it stops halfway. It fails to contemplate the role that the family relations within sectors of the working class and oppressed can play in moments of heightened class struggle. On another level, it doesn’t account for the fact that capitalism, while it needs such a “social cell” for its own reproduction, constantly undermines working families’ very conditions of existence. Marx and Engels remarked on this in the mid-19th century, pointing to the length of the working day, the lack of decent housing, and the general precariousness of working class life.'

  8. 'Ahora bien, Lewis debate en su libro con algunas feministas negras que, en diferentes momentos, han cuestionado la idea de “abolición de la familia”. Su argumento central ha sido que, muchas veces, las familias negras fueron un lugar de resistencia frente al racismo. En el mismo sentido, podríamos recuperar múltiples experiencias de la lucha de clases en las cuales sectores de las familias trabajadoras han jugado un papel clave contra los ataques del capital. Ya sea mediante el apoyo a huelgas obreras, estableciendo relaciones de solidaridad entre las fábricas y los barrios, mediante huelgas de alquileres, ollas populares, movimientos en defensa de los servicios públicos y otras formas de resistencia. La tradición de formar “comisiones de mujeres” en las huelgas, por ejemplo, ha permitido a la clase trabajadora articular fuerzas de lucha mucho más allá del lugar de trabajo.

    'Por su parte, Lewis responde a las feministas negras que, aun así, eso no quita que busquemos la abolición de la familia, ya que no necesitaríamos ese “escudo protector” si consiguiéramos dar forma a una sociedad sin racismo. El argumento tiene una parte de verdad, y sin embargo, se queda a medio camino. No contempla el papel que pueden desempeñar las relaciones familiares de algunos sectores de la clase trabajadora o sectores oprimidos en momentos de incremento de la lucha de clases. En otro plano, no toma en cuenta el hecho de que el capitalismo, a la vez que necesita de esa “célula social” para su propia reproducción, horada constantemente las condiciones de existencia de las familias trabajadoras. Marx y Engels ya habían señalado esto a mediados del siglo XIX, apuntando a la extensión de la jornada laboral, la falta de viviendas en condiciones, y en general la precariedad de la vida de la clase trabajadora.'
