SUMMARY:Our Bodies Our Lives Our Right to Decide
DESCRIPTION:❌On 2nd September 2023 the anti-abortion organisation ‘March for Life’ will descend on London to demand an end to abortion under any circumstances ❌  \n  \n📣JOIN US ON THE STREETS TO OPPOSE THEM with JOY \n❤️‍🔥 Our Bodies – Our lives – Our Right to Decide ❤️‍🔥 \n  \n📍2 SEPTEMBER | 12:00 | OUTSIDE THE HOME OFFICE (2 Marsham Street\, LDN)  \n  \nGiven everything that has happened this week and the ongoing criminalization of abortion\, we are taking to the streets to defend our reproductive rights. We are part of a coalition of feminist\, queer\, trans\, migrant and anti-racist activists who refuse to allow the politics of bigotry to take over our streets. \n\nMarch for life is an off-shoot of a US organisation\, newly emboldened by the overturning of Roe vs Wade\, their theme for their march this year is #FreedomtoLive.  \n  \n🌞For us #Freedomtolive means freedom over what happens to our bodies\, freedom to love who we want\, freedom to walk the streets without fear\, and freedom to cross borders (and to stay!). It means free healthcare\, education\, and public services. Join us to make sure our vision of freedom is the one that holds the day!  \n  \nACT UP \nBRAZIL MATTERS \nFEMINIST FIGHTBACK \nWOMEN’S STRIKE ASSEMBLY \nLONDON ANTI-FASCIST ASSEMBLY \nINDUSTRIAL WORKERS OF THE WORLD \nFEMINIST ASSEMBLY OF LATIN AMERICANS \nSEX WORKER ADVOCACY AND RESISTANCE MOVEMENT \n🔥✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿🔥 \n

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 3
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.
