March 8th has been established as the institutional celebration of women's rights. But the majority of everyday violence we experience as femininities, trans, and queer people is not relieved by a day granted by the institutions and hijacked by capitalism.
With the ongoing attacks in North and East Syria (Rojava) by ISIS supported by hegemonic forces, this year for the 8th of March, we choose to center the Rojava revolution and the Kurdish Women's Movement in our fight. With the simplest act we want to support our sisters all around the world fighting for liberation.
Understanding the importance of organizing and demonstrating on the streets in Wageningen as well as our position(ality) within the current international situation, we invite comrades to join forces and collectively organize.
A few days before International Women's Day, we came together to make signs and banners in preparation for the Trans Feminist Demonstration in Wageningen. We gathered at the Old Library το paint placards with slogans ranging from “SMASH PATRIARCHY” to “OUR SOCIETY LIVES ON WOMEN'S UNPAID LABOUR”.
