About us
Feminist Fightback is a collective developed out of conferences in 2006 and 2007. On 14 February 09, along with other feminist and activist groups, we organised a conference on the theme Gender, Race and Class. We're inspired by the politics of a range of anti-capitalist feminist struggles, and believe that no single oppression can be challenged in isolation from all other forms of exploitation that intersect with it.

Freedom for Yarl’s Wood Hunger strikers - Wed 17 Feb

WEDNESDAY 17th FEBRUARY, 6.30pm-7.30pm, OUTSIDE HOLLOWAY PRISON, Parkhurst Road, London N7 0NU

On Thursday 4th February 84 women started a hunger strike in Yarl’s Wood Immigration Detention Centre near Bedford, demanding their release.

On Monday 8th December the hunger strikers were locked up by the centre’s guards for 8 hours, without access to water or toilet facilities. Four women were picked out as “ringleaders” and were taken to various prisons. All are now incarcerated in HMP Holloway.

We are calling for the immediate release of the “Yarls Wood 4″ and all the other women still on hunger strike in the centre.

Please come and demonstrate outside HMP Holloway this Wednesday between 6.30-7.30pm. Bring banners and instruments.

CLOSE ALL DETENTION CENTRES! STOP DEPORTATION!
