Mayday "Invest in Caring not Killing" Open Day
Crossroads Women's Centre | 30.04.2002 13:28
Among the attractions will be a display and information about the Global Women's Strike - international grassroots actions every 8 March.
The Strike website will be open for people to browse. Information about the Strike will be available for people to take away in 34 languages.
The Strike demands that society "Invest in Caring, Not Killing" and is women's reply globally to US economic, political and military domination of the world. We demand a world which values all women's work and every life, an end to America's new war and all wars. We call for a transfer of the $900 + billion military budget into the essentials of life: water, sanitation, health, nutrition, literacy and payment for all caring work.
We will also play other videos which reveal some of the history of the women's movement against overwork, including the pathbreaking "All Work and No Pay", a BBC "Open Door" documentary from 1976 with people from our Centre.
