::: Coverage: Women Workers Marching in Argentina
This May 1, International Workers’ Day, we took part in the Workers’ March in Buenos Aires, Argentina, taking to streets that are marked by resistance as well as grassroots feminist victories. We share below photos that show the radical character, the organization, and the major role played by women in labor union movements during the demonstration. We also publish stories by women activists who attended the rally, in which they talk about the challenges facing the labor world today and the tasks of feminism in social change. | Gallery
CALL FOR POSTERS
Until June 1, the international "(In)security" poster call, organized by the "No to NATO" Peace Summit, is open. We at Capire invite women, women's collectives, or gender dissidents to submit their posters for a subsection of the call, entitled "(In)security feminist." We invite you to create your artwork and reflect from a feminist approach on two themes: 1. The challenges and practices of women to sustain life in contexts of war; 2. The contributions of feminism for peace building.
You can use whatever tools and languages you wish to create your poster: painting, collage, photography, drawing, either digital or manual. It is not necessary to have previous work or be a "professional artist" to participate. The important thing is to contribute with feminist expressions against the war and send your file in good quality, in A3 size and 300dpi, without borders, backgrounds or watermarks. This feminist section will be published as a virtual gallery on the Capire and Peace Summit websites.
