Happy International Women's Day, comrades. 🌹 Today we celebrate the innumerable contributions women have made to the movement for the liberation of all people—revolutionaries, fighters, theorists, artists, liberators and mothers.

A better world is possible—let's build it together. 🌹 dsausa.org/join

Today the holiday has been co-opted by capitalism, removing its revolutionary character

But we must never forget where it came from, must never forget the women who fought and died for a better world

Today and every day we fight against patriarchy

We fight against capitalism

We fight for socialism

INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY

IS A

SOCIALIST HOLIDAY

INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY IS A SOCIALIST HOLIDAY

The first "Women's Day" was celebrated by the Socialist Party of America in 1909 in NYC by labor organizer Theresa Malkiel

Coming off the heels of the suffragette movement, the day marked that the struggle against patriarchy and capitalism are intertwined

SOCIALIST PARTY WORKERS of the WORLD UNITE!

The first "International Women's Day" to be celebrated on March 8th was in 1914, primarily in the German Empire, fighting for women's right to vote

International Women's Day quickly became associated with revolution in 1917 Russia, where women textile workers marched against the Tsar in St. Petersburg demanding "peace, land, and bread"

Their movement would ignite a fire throughout the nation, leading to the February Revolution which ended the monarchy

The people of the US overwhelmingly oppose this war, but that opposition needs to be expressed in the streets so much that it’s impossible to ignore!

We won’t stand by while this new war claims more lives, while Trump and the billionaires in the White House laugh!

THE COUNTRY IS GOVERNED FOR THE RICHEST, FOR THE CORPORATIONS, THE BANKERS, THE LAND SPECULATORS AND FOR THE EXPLOITERS OF LABOR. THE MAJORITY OF MANKIND ARE WORKING PEOPLE. SO LONG AS THEIR FAIR DEMANDS - THE OWNERSHIP AND CONTROL OF THEIR LIVELIHOODS - ARE SET AT NAUGHT, WE CAN HAVE NEITHER MEN'S RIGHTS NOR WOMEN'S RIGHTS. THE MAJORITY OF MANKIND IS GROUND DOWN BY INDUSTRIAL OPPRESSION IN ORDER THAT THE SMALL REMNANTS MAY LIVE IN EASE.

Earlier this year, genocide scholars (including the former president of the International Association of Genocide Scholars) began sounding alarms that the United States may be in the early stages of a genocide against transgender people. The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention and Human Security issued a “Red Flag Alert” due to the increased anti-trans rhetoric and legislation across the nation. 

It is in this context that the Kansas state legislature ramped up their years-long crusade to eliminate trans people from society. In order to ram the bill through without pushback, these legislators used an anti-democratic maneuver which is used so often that it has its own name. The “gut and go” maneuver is a tactic in which legislators introduce a bill and then replace its contents through “amendments.” This skirts opportunities for public input and limits other legislators from deliberation. The Republicans then used their super majority to push the bill through as quickly as possible.

As the U.S. and Israel’s war against Iran drags into its fourth day, and the devastating death toll for Iranians rises to more than 700, Israel is hoping the world is no longer watching Gaza.

They’re using Iran as an excuse to starve even more Palestinians.
