On 1st of May it’s the International (Care) Workers’ Day! Let’s go on strike together!

The Frauen*Streikkomitee Augsburg calls for strike on the 1st of May because the 8th of March is everyday! Women* and Queers go on strike in your households and families! We are all workers and even on a holiday we are working. That’s why we make the 1st of May to our day of strike.

We can’t demonstrate but we can protest: let’s make our strike visible. Let’s hang aprons and banners out of the windows, let’s make violet the sign of our struggle and solidarity – be creative!

You can send us pictures of your form of protest or post them yourself and tag us on Facebook or Instagram (@frauenstreik_aux). You can use the Hashtags #internationalertagdersorgearbeit and/or #frauenstreikaux.

Public virtual assembly

Political work doesn’t stop in times like these. That’s why we invite you to use your time to get to know us and to network: you can get the link to our video confernce at 4.30 p.m. if you send us an e-Mail or a message (frauenstreikaux[at]riseup.net).

What a wonderful and strong women*’s strike on Sunday! 💜

Look at these great pictures taken by photographer Anika Neumann (instagram.com/anikaching).

Here you can find more pictures from the day.

 

what to bring to the demonstration:

– purple clothes

– signs and banners

– pots, cooking spoons and so on to make noise

 

what to leave at home:

– sexist, racist and other discriminating shit

– advertisement for the election and symbols of political parties

 

It’s time!

For the first time, the traditional KMM is making its way through the city centre. Wombs have been menstruating for a long time. Capitalism has not yet raged for so long. At least not as long as wombs. Collectively we have been before, then again not so much, then again, then again not so much. And we certainly are now. In any case, it’s somehow time to finally bring it all together: In the spirit of “menstrual blood before capitalist shit” we put the market economy back in its place!

Bleeding wombs, no longer bleeding wombs, not yet bleeding wombs, never bleeding wombs and women* affected by it, who suffer under the discrimination – and all the rubbish that goes with it – of the patriarchy, yes, and people who don’t really have anything in their menstrual cup, but who want to run with it, UNITE!

With a bloody GIANT TAMPON we walk through the streets as a symbol and draw attention: We b-l-e-e-d. Collectively. Against the market economy.

Let’s share a curious experience, let’s all bleed our shame away, let’s be angry about the invisibility of VULVAS & bleeding and let’s celebrate the banality of all this with visible bleeding!

It is time to bleed out loud. Saturday, 7th of March, 2pm. at Königsplatz.

… oh crap… I’m bleeding… I’m really bleeding… ahhh shit, the index finger is bleeding… god damn-it… again I cut myself on the razor sharp words… fuck. I’ll get a plaster… see you saturday 😉

 

 

Only some days are left for the women*’s strike 2020. We are preparing like crazy!

On Friday the 6th of March we want to paint banners together for Sunday. Everyone is welcome. Material will be provided by us.

Come along and let’s be creative together!

Starting at 2.30pm at Annastraße/Steingasse.

Feminism and climate justice are two struggles closely connected to each other. Climate change has much more severe consequences for women*.

That’s why we will participate in the manifestation “Augsburg for Future” and give our own speech.

Sunday, 1st of March, 3 pm Rathausplatz
