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.

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.

SUMMARY:Feminist Fightback Reading Group: Minor Detail by Adania Shibli
DESCRIPTION:Join Feminist Fightback and friends for a one off mid-winter fiction session. Taking our cue from current events in Gaza and the return of the occupation of Palestine to the forefront\, we have decided to read a book relevant to the Palestinian struggle. \nWe will be reading Adania Shibli’s 2020 book Minor Detail. A haunting meditation on war\, violence and memory\, Minor Detail cuts to the heart of the Palestinian experience of dispossession\, life under occupation\, and the persistent difficulty of piecing together a narrative in the face of ongoing erasure and disempowerment. \nMinor Detail was awarded Times Books of the Year 2020 and was longlisted for the 2021 International Booker Prize. \nPlease come having read the text. Drop us a line if you would like more details and to let us know if you will be joining\, so we have an idea of numbers at feminist.fightback@gmail.com. \nThese 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.

SUMMARY:Feminist Fightback Filmclub presents: In Between

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.

SUMMARY:Feminist Fightback Filmclub presents: A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night
DESCRIPTION:Join Feminist Fightback for our Halloween film showing as this year we watch together Ana Lily Amirpour’s A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014). Amirpour’s black and white debut film has become a cult classic often called the first Iranian vampire western. \nSet in the fictitious Iranian ghost town of Bad City\, the film features a chador-wearing\, skateboarding young female vampire known only as The Girl\, who stalks the streets of the city at night preying on unsavory men. \nThe Girl\, with her vampiric teeth and supernatural powers\, subverts the image of the veiled woman as submissive\, turning the victimhood suggested by the film’s title on its head. This girl walks alone at night with no fear; she is the one to be feared. \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 Reading Group: Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment  - Part 4
DESCRIPTION:Join Feminist Fightback and friends for our summer reading group. We’ve taken the decision to replace the book we’d planned for our next reading group with ‘Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment’(2023) by Agnieszka Graff and Elżbieta Korolczuk. This book is much more aligned with our politics\, particularly around trans liberation and sex work decriminalisation. \n‘Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment’ charts the new phase of global struggles around gender equality and sexual democracy: the ultraconservative mobilization against “gender ideology” and feminist efforts to counteract it\, as well as how opposition to “gender” has become a key element of the rise of right-wing populism. The authors map the anti-gender campaigns as a global movement and argue that the anti-gender rhetoric is best understood as a reactionary critique of neoliberalism as a socio-cultural formation. \nWe’re reading ‘Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment’  to build our collective understanding of attacks on gender and reproductive rights from the hard right\, which is the current focus of Feminist Fightback’s activism. \nThe Open Access version of this book\, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license. \nThe series will take place over four sessions: \nTuesday 25th July \n\nIntroduction: The demonisation of “gender” and the crisis of democracy.\nChapter 1: Gender\, anti-gender and right-wing populism: Recasting the debate.\n\nTuesday 29th August \n\nChapter 2: Mapping the anti-gender campaigns as a global movement: From religious trend to political struggle.\nChapter 3: “Worse than communism and nazism put together”: Poland’s anti-gender campaigns in a comparative perspective.\n\nTuesday 26th September \n\nChapter 4: Gender as “Ebola from Brussels”: The uses and abuses of the anti-colonial frame.\nChapter 5: Anxious parents and children in danger: The family as a refuge from Neoliberalism.\n\nTuesday 24th October \n\nChapter 6: Counteracting anti-gender movements: Towards a populist feminism?\nConclusions: Gender in the populist moment.\n\nPlease come having read the text. Drop us a line if you would like more details and to let us know if you will be joining\, so we have an idea of numbers at feminist.fightback@gmail.com. \nThese 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.

SUMMARY:Reproductive Justice - Where next?
DESCRIPTION:On the 2nd of September\, Feminist Fightback were part of a coalition of feminist\, queer and trans\, migrant and anti-racist groups who took to the streets to counter the anti-abortion organisation March for Life. \nWe came together because anti-abortion\, anti-queer\, anti-trans and anti-migrant politics are linked – and our struggle for a liberatory future must be linked too. \n  \nTaking action together on the 2nd of September was one way for us to counter the reactionary and oppressive and gendered politics of the hard right – but the struggle continues. Join us on the evening of 15 September 2023 to take stock\, and to think together about where we go from here. \n  \nWe will meet from 7-9pm at Dalston Curve Garden\, Dalston Lane\, E8. The venue is wheelchair accessible with an accessible toilet. It is outdoors (with some rain cover)\, so please dress accordingly. \n  \nAll welcome – we welcome people of all genders\, and we would love to have you at the meeting whether you came to the action or not. Please let us know if you can make it by emailing feminist.fightback@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:Feminist Fightback Reading Group: Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment - Part 1
DESCRIPTION:Join Feminist Fightback and friends for our summer reading group. We’ve taken the decision to replace the book we’d planned for our next reading group with ‘Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment’(2023) by Agnieszka Graff and Elżbieta Korolczuk. This book is much more aligned with our politics\, particularly around trans liberation and sex work decriminalisation. \n‘Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment’ charts the new phase of global struggles around gender equality and sexual democracy: the ultraconservative mobilization against “gender ideology” and feminist efforts to counteract it\, as well as how opposition to “gender” has become a key element of the rise of right-wing populism. The authors map the anti-gender campaigns as a global movement and argue that the anti-gender rhetoric is best understood as a reactionary critique of neoliberalism as a socio-cultural formation. \nWe’re reading ‘Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment’  to build our collective understanding of attacks on gender and reproductive rights from the hard right\, which is the current focus of Feminist Fightback’s activism. \nThe Open Access version of this book\, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license. \nThe series will take place over four sessions: \nTuesday 25th July \n\nIntroduction: The demonisation of “gender” and the crisis of democracy.\nChapter 1: Gender\, anti-gender and right-wing populism: Recasting the debate.\n\nTuesday 29th August \n\nChapter 2: Mapping the anti-gender campaigns as a global movement: From religious trend to political struggle.\nChapter 3: “Worse than communism and nazism put together”: Poland’s anti-gender campaigns in a comparative perspective.\n\nTuesday 26th September \n\nChapter 4: Gender as “Ebola from Brussels”: The uses and abuses of the anti-colonial frame.\nChapter 5: Anxious parents and children in danger: The family as a refuge from Neoliberalism.\n\nTuesday 24th October \n\nChapter 6: Counteracting anti-gender movements: Towards a populist feminism?\nConclusions: Gender in the populist moment.\n\nPlease come having read the text. Drop us a line if you would like more details and to let us know if you will be joining\, so we have an idea of numbers at feminist.fightback@gmail.com. \nThese 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.

SUMMARY:Feminist Fightback Filmclub presents: 4 Months\, 3 Weeks and 2 Days
DESCRIPTION:Join Feminist Fightback for a screening of Palme d’Or winner ‘4 Months\, 3 Weeks\, 2 Days’ (1h 53m)\, a Romanian film by Cristian Mungiu\, set during the final years of Nicolae Ceaușescu’s rule. Abortion was illegal in Romania at that time\, and the film follows friends Otilia and Găbița as they attempt to obtain an illegal abortion on the black market when Găbița becomes pregnant. ‘4 Months…’ is a minimalist\, realist portrayal of the danger pregnant people face in states which deny access to abortion. \nWhen the film was released in 2007\, abortion was still illegal in Ireland. In 2023\, we’re in a world where Roe V Wade has been overturned\, making abortion illegal in many states. The hard right around the world have put gender and reproductive justice at the centre of their discursive and policy agendas\, attacking trans healthcare\, information for young people about sexuality and ‘non-traditional’ families\, alongside abortion rights. The US Supreme Court decision was a powerful and painful reminder that our rights are not settled\, that we have to fight to keep what we have and to push for more. We have to fight if we don’t want abortion to look like scared\, vulnerable\, exploited people waiting in hotel rooms for procedures or drugs that they’re not sure are safe\, risking criminalisation in the process. \nWe’ll be hosting a discussion after the film\, which will be a great chance to find out more about the organising Feminist Fightback are doing around threats to reproductive justice in the UK. We’d love to you to join us. \nPlease note\, the film contains scenes of medical procedures and sexual exploitation. \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: \nWaterloo Action Centre is located at 14 Baylis Road\, SE1 7A\, close to Waterloo station\, near to the Old Vic theatre. The closest tube and train station is Waterloo.  The closest bus stops are Baylis road served by the 59 and 76 and The Old Vic served by the 1\, 68\, 168\, 172\, 176\, 188\, C10. \nThe event will take place in the mezzanine hall of Waterloo Action Centre which is on the first floor and is accessible via lift. Toilets are located on the ground floor of the centre.

SUMMARY:Feminist Fightback Reading Group: Feminist City: Claiming Space in a Man-Made World by Leslie Kern - Part 3
DESCRIPTION:Join Feminist Fightback and friends for our spring reading group\, where we will discuss Leslie Kern’s book Feminist City: Claiming Space in a Man-Made World. This book is smaller than our last books at 224 pages so should be an easy read. \nThe series will take place over three sessions: \n\n Tuesday 25th April – Introduction: City of Men & Chapter 1: City of Moms\n Tuesday 30th May – Chapter 2: City of Friends & Chapter 3: City of One\n Tuesday 27th June – Chapter 4: City of Protest & Chapter 5: City of Fear & City of Possibility\n\nIn Feminist City\, through history\, personal experience and popular culture Leslie Kern exposes what is hidden in plain sight: the social inequalities built into our cities\, homes\, and neighbourhoods. Kern offers an alternative vision of the feminist city. Taking on fear\, motherhood\, friendship\, activism\, and the joys and perils of being alone\, Kern maps the city from new vantage points\, laying out an intersectional feminist approach to urban histories and proposes that the city is perhaps also our best hope for shaping a new urban future. It is time to dismantle what we take for granted about cities and to ask how we can build more just\, sustainable\, and women-friendly cities together. \nPlease come having read the text. Drop us a line if you would like more details and to let us know if you will be joining\, so we have an idea of numbers.\nfeminist.fightback@gmail.com \nThese will take place in person at Golden Lane Community Centre\, Golden Lane Estate\, London EC1Y 0SA.
