International Women's Day

This Saturday (the 7th of March) will mark the 100th anniversary of International Women's Day, an event orginally created to commemerate a strike by female workers in 19th Century America.


This years event will run from 12 noon until 17:00 in the Fener Brockway room at Conway Hall, Red Lion Square. Admission will be £2.00 waged and £1.00 unwaged.


Throughout history women have fought oppression to seek equal rights and greater opportunities, most notably the example of Rosa Luxemburg in the early 20th century. During the day there will be talks and discussions about her life, beliefs and politics which will be accompanied by a short film.


Discussion about the current capitilist crisis and job losses will also take place. All are welcome!
