International Women's Strike: 8 March 2018



The International Women’s Strike is a network of women in more than 50 different countries that emerged through planning a day of action for March 8th, 2017.  
In the spirit of that renewed radicalism, solidarity and internationalism, the International Women’s Strike US continues to be a national organizing center by and for women who have been marginalized and silenced by decades of neoliberalism directed towards the 99% of women: working women inside and outside of the home, women of color, Native women, disabled women, immigrant women, Muslim women, lesbian, CIS, queer and trans women. 
We see our efforts as part of a new international feminist movement that organizes resistance not just against Trump and his misogynist policies, but also against the conditions that produced Trump, namely the decades long economic inequality, criminalization and policing, racial and sexual violence, and imperial wars abroad.  
We aim to build relationships of solidarity between diverse organizations of women, and all those who seek to build a global feminist, working class movement.
