In Commemoration of the 100th Anniversary of IWD, Let's Turn This Day Into a Day of Protest Against Sexual Apartheid

Hello and Happy International Women’s Day!



In commemoration of the 100th anniversary of IWD, let’s turn this day into a day of protest against sexual apartheid.

To support our campaign, you can add your name to our declaration against sexual apartheid, which you can read here: http://www.equal-rights-now.com/etelaiye/et-pages/080206-englisi-sigen-petition.html. Email your name, organisation (if any) and country of residence to maryamnamazie@gmail.com or nohejab@yahoo.com.

You can also join our free seminar on Sexual Apartheid, Political Islam and Women’s Rights on Monday, March 10, from 6:30-9:30pm at Conway Hall, London. Mina Ahadi, Louise Couling, Houzan Mahmoud, Maryam Namazie and Joan Smith will be speaking; Hanne Stinson will be chairing the event. For more information, go to: http://www.secularism.org.uk/importantwomensdaymeetingthiswee.html
