Join us for a Celebration of Women in Resistance on March 22nd at 2pm at the MFE59 Union Hall!
We will illustrate the importance of international women’s history and how women have always understood internationalism, socialism, and anti-imperialist resistance as intertwined. There will be a few guest speakers who are based in action. They will highlight the exceptional work of contemporary feminist grassroots organizers, demonstrating the enduring relationship between feminism, and the international class struggle. In our current context here in Minnesota, women and femmes are on the frontlines of the resistance against ICE and protecting our immigrant communities. The intent of this event is to respond to the liberal discourses that make feminism just about identity recognition, and women participating in capitalism. We hope as socialists we can remind people that the day was led by those in struggle that led to the 1917 Revolution. More importantly— highlighting how women have always played a central role in fighting against fascism, imperialism and colonization.
