Women in Britain join International Women's Strike to demand systemic changes
HUNDREDS of women and allies in Britain joined the International Women’s Strike today to demand systemic changes that “prioritise the survival and well-being over profit.”
The strike, led by Global Women’s Stike (GWS) and the Women Rising coalition began yesterday and will see a range of actions take place until October 30.
It commemorated the 1975 Icelandic women’s strike where women stop their unwaged and waged work, bringing the country to a halt.
