The International Working Women's Day 2010 Coalition invites women, men
and children to attend the "Stop the violence against women, every issue
is a woman's issue" march and rally on Saturday, March 27 in New York
City. More now than ever, building solidarity and linking all the struggles
through protest are important to get this devastating economic crisis off the
backs of women, their families and communities.
The march will gather at Union Square at 14th and Broadway at 12 noon. The
march will step off around 12:30 p.m. Bring drums and other instruments to play
on the march. An ending rally will take place at the Solidarity Center at
approximately 2:30 p.m. followed by food, a film and music.
March 27 leaflets in English and Spanish are available for downloading at
the Bail Out the People Movement Web site at bailoutpeople.org. There will be
translations from English to Haitian Creole and Spanish and vice versa during
the rally.
If your group and/or you as an individual can support March 27, please fill
out the endorsement form for this activity and help get the word out about it
on your job, school, union and community. Call 212-633-6646 from 2 p.m. until 8
p.m. Monday through Saturday for more information and to arrange for
childcare.
The next March 27 planning meeting is Wednesday, March 17, 7 p.m. at the
Solidarity Center, 55 W. 17th St., 5th floor, Manhattan. Women are encouraged
to attend.
