The show Femmes Libres is a space for reflection and study of the specific oppression of women in a patriarchal and capitalist society founded on male domination. This space highlights the strategies of defense, denunciation, and reconstruction implemented by feminist movements, in light of the analysis of social relations of sex, gender, class, and origin. Each episode typically includes three parts: guests; activist news: meetings, conferences, publications, films, exhibitions, etc.; and segments that vary each week: Open Forum, From Eve to Philomène, and others. The program is broadcast monthly throughout the feminist network. It is often featured in publications, such as those of the Ruptures network or on the efigies.org mailing list, in Télérama, and also on the website https://www.monde-libertaire.fr/ ---- Recordings of the programs are available at: http://emission-femmeslibres.blogspot.com/

* From Eve to Philomène, not forgetting the others: Anacaona (1474-1504) was a Taíno chief and poet, the "Golden Flower" of Ayiti. A political leader and artistic genius, her leadership defied the patriarchy and brutality of the Spanish colonists. A powerful woman, an eternal icon of Caribbean feminist and decolonial resistance.
* Jean-Manuel Traimond presents Bible and Sex, a publication from Éditions du Monde Libertaire. Two thousand years it's been going on! Two thousand years that supposedly virgin goths in drag have been telling us how to use our genitals. With a barrage of guilt-inducing anathemas, prohibitions, moralizing, and threats of eternal damnation, they have taken over Western sexuality, elevating their masochistic obsessions to dogma, their homophobia to divine commandment, and their terror of women to a social norm, legitimizing massacres, burnings at the stake, and so, so much misery.

* Accords and Cris #17: Brussels: Christmas Punks. Every year, Brussels anarcho-punk René Binamé organizes his Christmas party, a wild and punk affair. This year, he invited Habenmeuf: a four-piece post-riot grrrl band from Liège, with politically charged and humorous lyrics. "Girls who do stuff, full of love and anger," they say when asked to introduce themselves.
* Camille Schmoll: The Damned of the Sea, La Découverte, 2025 reissue. For a long time, women were absent from the grand narrative of migration. Yet many leave their homes and loved ones to undertake the long journey across the desert and the Mediterranean. Based on extensive research conducted in Italy and Malta, this book is an investigation into the lives of survivors. A remarkable immersion into their daily lives in reception centers where their journey is suspended, awaiting recognition from a Europe that often rejects them. But these women are also resilient and strategic, searching for escape routes.

* Opinion piece: Surrogacy: its excesses. Could it have been otherwise?
* Ariane Mestre: Children's book Here. An ode to the city and to life, this book reveals the many facets of an imaginary urban neighborhood. Populated with humans and animals crossing paths on a street corner, in a park, or in a candy store, it's a celebration of respect for others and the environment, of individuality, of diversity, of enjoying good food at any age, and of public transportation! Welcome HERE!

* Poetic Opus:
* Jikaëlle loves simple words and ethereal melodies. She writes, composes, and sings. Without pretense, she uses her vulnerabilities to create strengths and expresses profound feelings with subtlety and lightness. She offers us a moment of song and music. In 2023, two EPs: Fragile and Sur un fil, and in 2025, the single À travers.
