Global Women's Strike Takes to the Streets on Int'l Women's Day

This year the Strike focused on demanding: "A Living Wage for All our Work & Pay Equity in the Global Market; End Poverty and War! Invest in Caring Not Killing!" More Demands of the Strike
The Global Women's Strike started in 2000 with women taking action together on or around March 8th. It has grown every year since, particularly in countries in the Global South. Men's support and participation internationally has been coordinated by Payday, a multiracial network of men, which is organizing with women and men who are Refusing to Kill: refusing the military and its lethal and repressive work, from the US and UK to Israel and Eritrea.
