International Women's Day is a day of protest and collective action.
'Woman's Day' was first recognized in the US in 1910 following the 13 week long strike of 20,000 female garment workers.
Four years later on this day in Russia, bread riots led by women fed directly into the 1917 revolution.
Celebrate International Women's Day by bringing it back to its radical roots.
30% off essential books on reproductive justice, socialist feminism, and trans liberation.
@versobooks.bsky.social published REPETITION by the Norwegian Annie Ernaux, VIGDIS HJORTH, and translated by Charlotte Barslund: #Booksky

Ed Meek highly recommends Timothy Mitchell's "The Alibi of Capital: How We Broke the Earth to Steal the Future on the Promise of a Better Tomorrow " @versobooks.bsky.social. Capitalism's strategy: steal the future and conceal the theft.
