Another year goes by and there is nothing to celebrate on March 8th. We, women of
the Brazilian Anarchist Coordination (CAB), continue in the trenches of thesocial struggle, facing fascist threats, everyday machismo and the denial of themost basic rights for a dignified life. The defeat of the fascist Jair Bolsonaroat the polls is far from being enough to change the 500-year-old reality thatcapitalism, colonialism and patriarchy have imposed on our territories. ---- Wewere on the streets, building the front line of the anti-fascist fight, evenbefore #EleNão in 2018. Many of us had to move away from family members,companions and leisure spaces because of our convictions. We faced threats,violence and were labeled crazy, not to mention all the losses we suffered at thehands of the genocidal Bolsonaro, especially during the pandemic. Now, somesectors of the left are asking us to "calm down" and to be "peaceful" in ourdemonstrations.Our position, as CAB women, is irreducible: we will continue to fight fascism byall possible means, and we will defend ourselves as necessary. Nor will we goback one centimeter in the fight for our rights or in our methods to conquer them:We want legal abortion for all people with a uterus, free and safe, through the SUS.We want trans and transvestite women to have a long life and their rightsassured, to occupy the benches of schools and universities and to have access tostable jobs, with decent wages and working conditions.We want an end to the genocide of black and poor people, the war on drugs andmass incarceration. We want to destroy racism and white supremacy. We want astrong and self-organized black people. We want Black women free from domesticand sexual violence, free from objectification and systemic loneliness.We want the repeal of the labor and social security reform, because we do notaccept working until we die, with terrible wages and without basic rights.We want accessible daycare centers, sex education in schools, the repeal of theNew Secondary School and vacancies for all in Public Universities, which mustremain free, guarantee permanence policies and develop research at the service ofour people.We want an end to mining and the capitalist exploitation of land and territories,with the demarcation of indigenous and quilombola lands, and the expropriation oflarge estates, putting land in the hands of those who live and work in it.We want free, quality public transport controlled by the people. We want adignified life and we are going to conquer it, regardless of who is in government.We are inspired by the struggle of women around the world! From the Zapatistas retaking their territories in southern Mexico, to Kurdishwomen facing imperialism and earthquakes in Rojava. From Spain's Mujeres Libres,who fought Franco's fascist army, Stalinist betrayals and machismo in theanarchist ranks itself, to our sisters across Latin America, who occupy buildingsand paint the streets green in the fight for free abortion , safe and free andlegal. Not forgetting every black mother who fights for justice on the peripheryand every trans and transvestite person fighting not to become a statistic.Our way out to crush fascism, guarantee rights and make the struggle of eachcomrade who is with us worth it is only one: popular organization. We need to betogether in rural, urban and forest movements, in housing, feminist andanti-racist movements. We need to occupy unions, student unions and neighborhoodassociations.We need combative, autonomous and class-independent movements, without relying onparties, professional politicians or corporations to achieve victories. Aslibertarian women, we need to build the Anarchist Organization to politicallydispute these spaces, fight against the patriarchy that is expressed within themovements themselves and radicalize them, so that they are the seeds of the newworld.Finally, our response to this system of death continues to be to plant our feetmore and more in the territories and social spaces of the oppressed classes. Itmeans taking responsibility for our liberation, for building and fighting forguidelines that expand our rights. Our path is self-organization,shoulder-to-shoulder, and the rebellion of those who already seek today to builda new world with socialism and freedom, and, therefore, a necessarily feminist,anti-racist and anti-capitalist world.UP LAS MUJERES QUE LUCHAN!CRUSH FASCISM WITH FIGHT AND ORGANIZATION!AGAINST THE STATE, CAPITALISM AND PATRIARCHY!https://cabanarquista.org/8m-esmagar-o-fascismo-o-racismo-o-patriarcado-e-o-capitalismo/_________________________________________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
