CALL for POSTERS

On March 8th, the Women's Strike NYC will be out in the streets reclaiming the anti-capitalist roots of International Working Women's Day and highlighting some of the major struggles at the crossroads of feminist and labor organizing: from the decimation of basic social safety nets, particularly insidious in working class communities of color, to the ways in which both care work and sex work remain unrecognized, even within the labor movement.

This year's Women's Strike NYC will take place on Sunday, March 8th at 1:00 PM in Washington Square Park in the form of a street festival.
