Muslim women bear a second shift of childcare and housework despite employment

Evidence

Muslim American women are no different than the women interviewed by Arlie Hochschild and Anne Machung in the late 1990s in their book The Second Shift (2003). These women also do more of the childcare and housework even if they are employed. There is a gender component to the type of volunteer work that Muslim women take on. — Saher Selod, Forever Suspect_ Racialized…, 556
