The Women’s Strike for Equality took place in the United States on August 26, 1970, then commemorating the 50th anniversary of passage of the 19th amendment, giving women the vote. Once again, women's rights are under attack, and just as in the '70s, women won't stand by quietly!
Join us on the 42nd anniversary of that day, in a National Strike for Equality.
Let us stand together! We are the 51%--and we won't be silenced!
P.S.--We welcome men to join in the struggle for gender equality.
As Martin Luther King, Jr. said:
"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."
This is intended to be a locally-controlled event.
How your state or local organization participates is up to you.
Make signs. Make speeches. Make a ruckus. Make waves.
Walk out of your class, your job, your church, your house.
Gather in parks, on the street, at your legislators' office.
March. Rally. Chant. Sing. Dance. Have a drum circle. Or stand in silence for the death of equality for women. Make this strike your own.
There are no rules, but to respect private property and public rights.
Otherwise, let the world see that all across this country, we are individuals, who each, in our own way, stand together for equality and justice.
Please use this page to post ideas, and to gather support and make connections to help you grow your own local group.
Own feminism! Strike for Equality!
