Our action as MFPR companions and Slai Cobas workers for the SC in the important March 8/Women's strike this year has had two realities at the center in particular.
On the one hand that of the workers,
of the workers who live a situation today heavier than loss of jobs, of enormous wage differences, of duties, of negation of even basic rights, of discrimination, of violence even in the jobs, of discharge on them of all the Work of care and domestic in the family ..., a condition of increasingly exploitation and oppression of the masters, of the government, today with the fascist Meloni, of this social system; But that in the face of all this, they struggle courageous and determinedly, they do not stop, or would like to fight ...
On the other that of Palestinian women
Which today are the symbol of the most atrocious oppression of the women of this capitalist and imperialist social system, but which transform the immense suffering, the pain, into force, in resistance and struggle.
In the flyers, posters, banners that we brought to some factories in the North, in the workplace, in the initiatives of the precarious workers of the Slai Cobas, which we spread in the events of Nudm and the Palestinians in which we participated in Milan, we brought a clear message
On the bond between women in struggle, the workers in the first place and the Palestinian women

First of all, we were at the Montello/Bg factory at the evening shift between 7 and 8 March,
We talked to several workers of all the reasons for the strike of women, of the need to join as workers, also treasured the struggles already made in recent years; The masters fear the unity of workers, for this reason they always try to divide them with blackmail, with pressure, repression; But we must look with confidence at the strength of the struggle of women ... In this sense, Palestinian women are a great example of the oppression that is transformed into force.

Because we women should not be crushed by anyone

Italy - March 8/strike a great day of mobilization and struggle of women
After the great mobilization of 25 November in Rome, This year, March 8 was an extensive day of struggle, action, a new strong and combative response of the movement of women who confirmed the will/need not to stop and continue to fight, to join and rebel to a condition of exploitation and oppression that invests every area of the living condition of the majority of women in this country.
All this has materialized first of all with the strike,
a strike not only union
but which again had the value of a strong challenge, of rupture,
A weapon of struggle to be challenged, a strike that from the jobs touches all aspects of the life of the workers, women, young people,
increasingly under attack in a specific phase such as the current one in which with the government, with the fascist Meloni, it advances in this country ideologically, politically, practically a
modern fascism
And from which also emanates a modern patriarchism that influences and affects the mass level until the serious emergency of more and more men who kill women, who want to freely choose their lives, as if it were a normality.
A strike "
from productive and reproductive work
"As the Nudm movement also wrote,
but which must be placed in a perspective that places the need for women's struggle at 360 degrees against the capitalist and imperialist social system, violent, source and cause and oppression of women,
that cannot be improved but only overthrown...
