SUMMARY:Why is Palestine a feminist issue? Feminist assembly & political education workshop
DESCRIPTION:From London to Palestine\, Abya Yala to Kurdistan\, our fight for liberation and solidarity must cross borders. None of us are free until all of us are free. \nThe freedom of Palestinians is intrinsic to our collective freedom against all forms of oppression. As feminists we support all liberation movements to combat injustice: we are building a movement to overcome colonial\, imperialist and patriarchal systems\, to build a more just world together. \nThe Feminists for Palestine coalition is organising a collective political education workshop to build upon the work and discussions we have had organising a feminist block during the ongoing Palestine demonstrations and this year’s Women’s Strike for Liberation. \nAgenda\n\n2.00pm – 3.30pm: Speakers and Q&A\n3.30pm – 5.00pm: Workshop\n5.00pm-6.00pm: Communal meal\n\nRegistration and updates\nPlease register if you will attend so that we can keep you informed of any updates and further details about the event and so that we know numbers for the communal meal. \nFor updates you can also follow us on instagram: @falatinamericans\, @feminist_fightback \nLocation and accessibility\nThe event is taking place on the ground floor of Golden Lane Community Centre\, Fann Street\, London EC1Y 0SA. \nThe venue is fully accessible. \nIf you are coming by tube\, the Barbican station is a short walk away. If you are coming by bus\, the 4\, 56 and 153 buses have stops also a short walk away. \nWe are not able to set up and provide an online option to join this event\, so it will be in person only.

SUMMARY:Feminist Fightback Reading Group: Interviews with Radical Palestinian Women
DESCRIPTION:Join Feminist Fightback and friends for the third and last book in our short look at the Palestinian struggle. Having read a fiction book (Minor Detail) and a non-fiction book (Greater than the sum of our parts)\, we’re now going to read ‘Interviews with radical Palestinian women’\, a book edited by the Shoal collective. \nThis book covers the struggles against colonialism\, white supremacy\, conservatism\, patriarchy\, state control and occupation. In the Shoal Collective’s own words: \nThe idea for this book came out of a concern that solidarity movements have a tendency only to engage with Palestinians about their fight against the Israeli occupation. Sometimes this can be a barrier to seeing them as comrades in our intersecting struggles for a better world and against authoritarianism\, white supremacy\, patriarchy\, capitalism and state control. \nFor this session we don’t expect you to have read the whole book. Instead\, please come having read at least a couple of the interviews\, and be ready to explain them to those who may have chosen to read different interviews than you. \nThis book can be bought in paper format or pdf or downloaded for free from the Shoal Collective’s website. It can also be found in brick and mortar bookshops like Housmans or Foyles. \nYou don’t need to have participated in the previous Feminist Fightback reading group sessions on Palestine to show up – everyone is welcome. Drop us a line if you would like more details at feminist.fightback@gmail.com. \nThe session will take place in person at Golden Lane Community Centre\, Golden Lane Estate\, London EC1Y 0SA. The venue is fully accessible. Please arrive at 7.30 for 7.45 start; we will finish at 9.00pm. All genders welcome.

Drop us a line if you would like more details at feminist.fightback@gmail.com. \nWe urge people to buy the book or borrow it from a library\, if they can find it\, to support the author.

The venue is fully accessible. Please arrive at 7.00 for 7.15 start; we will finish at 8.30pm. All genders welcome.

SUMMARY:Feminist Fightback Filmclub presents: Concerning Violence
DESCRIPTION:Join Feminist Fightback for our September film showing. This month we are showing Concerning Violence(89min)\, a 2014 documentary film written and directed by Göran Olsson. \nConcerning Violence is a bold and fresh visual narrative of African nationalist and independence movements in the 1960s and 1970s based on archive material from Swedish documentaries covering the most daring moments in the struggle for liberation from colonial rule. This powerful footage is combined with text from Frantz Fanon’s landmark book The Wretched of the Earth – written in 1960 and still a major tool for understanding and illuminating the neocolonialism happening today\, as well as the unrest and the reactions against it. \nContent warnings: scenes of military violence\, descriptions of torture\, racist language\, scenes of apartheid \n  \nExhibiting anger/ joy during the film at oppressive behaviour/ high points of struggle very much encouraged. Drinks and snacks will be available. \nSuggested donations on the door £2/5/10 unwaged/waged/solidarity. \nAll genders welcome. \nDoors open at 7pm. \nACCESS:  \nThe film showing will take place on the ground floor of Pelican House\, in the room at the back of the courtyard. The toilets are on the same same level. The space and toilets are level access from the road. \nClosest stations Bethnal Green tube station and Bethnal Green overground station. \nClosest bus stops Cephas Street and Three Colts Lane for the 106 and 254 buses.

SUMMARY:Feminist Fightback Filmclub: I am not a witch
DESCRIPTION:Join Feminist Fightback this March for a screening of  I am not a witch (2017\, 93min) by Zambian filmmaker Rungano Nyoni. \nExploring Zambia’s little-known culture of “witch camps\,” the film masterfully combines comedy\, tragedy\, and mesmerizing visuals. A portrait of a defiant young girl\, I Am Not a Witch mounts an acerbic critique of women’s oppression and corruption through tourism\, media and superstition. \nContent warnings: exploitation\, imprisonment\, harm\, violence\, off screen animal death\, blood\, depiction fo death\, prejudice and stereotyping. \n \n  \nExhibiting anger/ joy during the film at oppressive behaviour/ high points of struggle is very much encouraged. \nDrinks and snacks will be available. \nSuggested donations on the door £2/5/10 unwaged/waged/solidarity. \nAll genders welcome. \nDoors open at 7pm. \nACCESS:  \nThe film showing will take place on the ground floor of Pelican House\, in the room at the back of the courtyard. The toilets are on the same same level. The space and toilets are level access from the road. \nClosest stations: Bethnal Green and Whitechapel \nClosest bus stops: Cephas Street and Three Colts Lane for the 106 and 254 buses. \nNote: The Pelican House event space can get chilly so we recommend dressing up warm if the weather is cold.
