"This International Women’s Day we call on all who identify as feminists to engage in the lifelong unlearning of their biases and to be in solidarity with Palestinian women, Sudanese women, Congolese women who are experiencing an ongoing genocide." from The Slow Factory, 08/Mar/2024: caption cont. under images.

In Palestine, more than 9,000 women have been brutally killed by the Israeli Occupation. 63 women killed per day.
In Sudan, 4 million Sudanese women & girls are at risk of sexual violence.
In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, more than 1 million women have been survivors of sexual violence.
In Turtle Island aka the so called USA, 94% of fatal violence committed again Trans people are committed against Trans women.
This isn’t about the stats, the poverty porn or the constant shock doctrine the West desperately needs in order to be inclusive. This is a call for solidarity and collective action.
Access to feminine hygiene products, bodily autonomy and the access to necessary safe and caring spaces as women are all human rights.

i don’t know what chronically-ill/disabled baddie needs to hear this, but doing things slowly, with a mobility aid, or with the help of a caregiver is still doing things. even if it took you an hour and five breaks to fold a load of laundry — you still did it! just because you can’t do things at the speed and ease of able-bodied people doesn’t mean you can’t do them. i just switched over the laundry and it took me 10 minutes and now i’m laying down in bed to recover, but i did it!!! and i’m proud of myself for even trying!

i hate that there is so much hatred for women in the world, so much hatred for girls, even little girls. cant even express how much love my heart holds for women, i love being a woman and i love women more than anything. everything about women, everything about trans, poc, cis , queer, butch, disabled, religious, neurodivergent, fat, old women, everything about all women is so so beautiful. and yes there are women that suck and womanhood isnt about being a cute little innocent person, but oh how i love women and i love women who love women and i love women.

Friendly reminder that if your feminism doesn’t include woc, queer women, trans women, disabled women, women of any religion, or sex workers then your “feminism” is shit <3

“Women with disabilities
experience the highest rate
of personal violence
of any group in our society.”]
• Double that if you’re also person of color.
• Double THAT, if you’re also LGBTQIA.

Judy Heumann passed away on March 3rd, 2023
She said she believed it was her parents’ experience [fleeing from Nazi Germany and the Holocaust as children] that led them to reject doctors’ advice to have their daughter institutionalized after she contracted polio and lost the use of her legs. “They came from a country where families got separated, some children sent away, others taken from their families by the authorities and never returned — all part of a campaign of systematic dehumanization and murder,” she wrote in her memoir, “Being Heumann.” “Their daughter, disabled or not, wasn’t going anywhere.”
If you have Netflix, Heumann is in Crip Camp, an amazing documentary on disability rights.
Here is her website that lists her publications, including her recent 2020 memoir called "Being Heumann" (please do not pirate her publications out of respect. Buy them or find them at a library).
This woman is one of the main reasons why disabled children in the US can attend public school. She fought for accessibility in Federal buildings and work places before fighting for the ADA, for accessibility in all spaces.
I am heartbroken to hear of her passing. She has impacted the lives of millions if not billions of people for the better. May her memory be a blessing.
