Feminists fight back!
23/08/2006

ENS Women is organising a conference for feminist activists, to be held in London on October 21 (venue tbc).

We want to build a feminist movement that fights. A feminist movement that is about activism, not just talk; about grassroots campaigning, not just lobbying; about politics, not just lifestyle choices; and about liberation for all, not just equality for a privileged few.

The conference will include a variety of speakers, discussion and activist training workshops on themes including sexual liberation, international solidarity and women's struggles as workers. Planned sessions include:

  • Pornography, objectification and freedom of speech
  • Equal pay, low pay and workers' struggle
  • Prostitutes: workers or victims?
  • The fight for abortion rights - planning actions for the next year
  • Building campaigning women's groups
  • Against war, against theocracy - Iranian women fight back

Check out the Feminist Fightback conference website for more details, and get involved!
