Make a Date with Feminists
On Saturday 14 February, Feminist Fightback and other feminist groups and organisations will hold
xtalk will be speaking at the workshop ‘Trafficking: myths, morals and migrants’ with other sex workers organisations.
From the Gender, Race & Class website:
‘We are committed to an anti-capitalist feminism which sees the interconnections between all struggles against oppressions and against capitalism, and we want to build an event that creates an open space to discuss this and develop our ideas. But we don’t want to just talk about our politics – we want to fight to actually change the material conditions of women’s lives, to fight misogyny and our own exploitation, and to involve as many women and men as possible in the campaigns that will be at the centre of this event.
We hope the event will provide us with a forum to come together, participate in open debate, learn from each other, develop strategies to work towards our common aims, make alliances and inspire each other to build a strong and active feminist movement from the bottom up.
The day will offer 12 workshops which explore the ways in which sexist, racist and capitalist exploitation take place in our society and will look for opportunities to challenge these together. We hope to involve as many women and men as possible in the campaigns that will be at the centre of this event.’
New Venue: SOAS, Thornhaugh Street, Russell Square, London (all other details the same…)
Timings are the same: Sat 14 February, 10.30am – 6.30 pm
Please pass this on to others who may be coming to the event
