This is a call for ALL WOMEN TO STRIKE THIS MONDAY, MARCH 8TH!
Demands of the Global Women's Strike
♦ Payment for all caring work – in wages, pensions, land & other resources. What is more valuable than raising children & caring for others? Invest in life & welfare, not military budgets & prisons.
♦ Pay equity for all, women & men, in the global market.
♦ Food security for all, starting with breastfeeding mothers. Paid maternity leave, breastfeeding breaks & other benefits - stop penalizing us for being women.
♦ Don’t pay ‘Third World Debt’. Women owe nothing, they owe us.
♦ Accessible clean water, healthcare, housing, transportation, literacy.
♦ Non-polluting energy & technology which shortens the hours we work. We all need cookers/stoves, fridges, washing machines, computers, & time off!
♦ Protection & asylum from all violence & persecution, including by family members & people in positions of authority.
♦ Freedom of movement. Capital travels freely, why not people?
