International Women's Day March & Protest

Stadhuis, Rotterdam, zaterdag 8 maart om 16:00 CET

Feministas en Rotterdam (source)

📢 JOIN US THIS 8M: IWD MARCH & PROTEST IN ROTTERDAM! 📢

✊🏽 On Saturday, March 8th, we take to the streets! Feministas en Rotterdam, together with allied collectives and grassroots activists, calls on all feminists to march against patriarchal violence, racism, transphobia, injustice, war, state repression, and the rise of the far right!

🔥 We gather at Stadhuis Rotterdam at 16:00 and march towards Central Station, raising our voices for all those resisting violence and exploitation worldwide. We demand justice for the women and trans people murdered here in the Netherlands and in our home countries, for migrant and racialized communities facing systemic oppression, and for all those fighting for liberation in Palestine, Sudan, the Congo, Latin America, and across the globe.

💥 For us, March 8th is not a day of celebration—it is a day of protest! A moment to take to the streets, to be loud and in unity, and to make our presence impossible to ignore. It is a day to honor the struggles of those who came before us, to stand with those resisting today, and to reclaim the streets as spaces of feminist defiance and collective power.

🤝 Come as you are, join us, and stand together, because you are not alone. We are not alone. In times of fear and oppression, our strength is in our collective action, in our voices, and in our determination to resist and believe that other worlds are possible.🍉

✨ Our march will conclude with an aftercare space where we will break fast together, holding space for care, reflection, and collective healing.

🪧 Bring your signs, your energy, and your solidarity, because our fight doesn’t end in the streets; it continues in the ways we care for and uplift each other every single day. 💜

✊🏾🔥 See you there! 🔥✊🏽
