We women are always one step behind the men: 22% less wages, 40% less pension.
---- More than a hundred years ago, on March 8, 1917, women workers in SaintPetersburg (Russia) went on strike and demonstrated to demand bread and peace.They thus initiated a historic revolutionary movement. The March 8 fight forwomen's rights was launched. Today as yesterday, the strike is a powerful tool.In Spain, the feminist movement has armed itself with the strike to reduceviolence, forcing the State to deploy resources. Today there are twice as manyfeminicides in Spain as in France. In Argentina, the women's strike shifted thebalance in their favor to win the right to abortion.-> Today we have no choice but to fight.1. Pension reform: when it's hard for everyone, it's even worse for womenToday the pension reform condemns women to the mandatory discount (chokedcareers), and condemns them to a life of misery and dependence once they reachthe golden age.-> We have no choice but to be on the front line of the mobilization against thepension reform and their social project.2. End the criminal alliance between capitalism and patriarchyToday, half of women are concentrated in 10 professions. Their common point? Lowwages, precariousness, isolation, imposed part-time and employer brutality.-> We have no choice but to strike.3. Feminists against the racist stateCleaning, home help, caregivers, racialized women are the convicts of the worldof work. The immigration law that the government is planning will illegalize andmake precarious a large number of women.-> We have no choice but to block everything.4. Organize feminists, make unionism feministToday, without a massive unionization of women, class unionism cannot win.-> We have no choice but to organize ourselves.5. Against gender-based violence, feminist self-defenseToday, a woman is murdered every two days.-> We have no choice but to fight.6. Feminists against LGBTIphobiasToday the far right thrives on hatred against sexual and gender minorities. TheManif pour Tous was a launching pad for their deployment and their massification,which Zemmour benefits from today.-> We have no choice but to resist.7. Feminists Against the Fascist PerilHere as elsewhere, the extreme right is at the gates of power, from where itdestroys feminist conquests and sends women back to the house.-> We have no choice but to defend ourselves.8. No feminism without love of internationalismToday Iranian women and Kurdish women in struggle are opening the way for us.-> We have no choice but to follow their path.When women stand up, the people move forwardOn March 8, we have no choice but to unite, organize, go on strike to changeeverything. The power of women changes the world.Libertarian Communist Union, February 27, 2023.https://www.unioncommunistelibertaire.org/?8-mars-au-boulot-a-la-maison-c-est-la-greve-totale-des-femmes_________________________________________A - I N F O S N E W S S E R V I C EBy, For, and About AnarchistsSend news reports to A-infos-en mailing listA-infos-en@ainfos.ca
