Today and always we stand in solidarity with Palestinians. As transnational women of color, our struggles against imperialism and patriarchy in our homelands and in our bodies are interconnected.

End zionist land grabbing!

“Si me matan... Yo sacaré mis brazos de la tumba y seré más fuerte.“

“If they kill me… I'll reach my arms out through my tomb and I'll be even
stronger.” -Minerva Mirabal

62 years ago today - Patria, Minerva and Maria Teresa Mirabal also known as “Las Mariposas” were murdered in the Dominican Republic by agents of the country’s dictator Rafael Trujillo. The three sisters were vibrant political activists who publicly spoke out against the Trujillo regime. Their deaths drove the anti-Trujillo movement to new strengths, and activated transnational organizing, mobilization and collective solidarity. In 1991, to pay homage to Las Mariposas - November 25th was declared the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. Today also marks the beginning of 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Based Violence - an international campaign that runs every year for 16 days, starting November 25th to December 10th (Human Rights Day) and includes several other important days.

As current women organizers, we hold their memory close to our chests as we continue their work. We study their stories. We learn their lessons. We know that women in the movement are subject to particularly brutal political repression but we also know that women have the potential to change the course of history. We women face the most risk while engaging in movements, but we also have the capacity to transform entire nations with our struggle.

Stay tuned for coordinated actions and events by different AF3IRM chapters as we rise together in global resistance in the spirit of .

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month and we at AF3IRM Portland recognize that domestic violence is the root of all violence under patriarchy. During the COVID-19 pandemic there has been a rise in domestic violence, which is disproportionately represented by black, indigenous, and women of color. In Oregon, 40% of all women experience intimate partner violence in their lifetimes, and 96% of all victims of intimate partner murder-suicides are women.

We condemn femicide and all forms of gender-based violence. Onward to genuine liberation and the downfall of patriarchy!⚔🗡

DM to join the anti-imperialist sisterhood and organize for our collective safety and autonomy.
