International Women’s Day 2017
From Italy throughout
the world women grasp the weapon of women’s strike to fight this
capitalist, imperialist, patriarchal society
The
sparks of the women’s strike, lit in Italy over the last three
years by the Feminist Revolutionary Proletarian Movement - PCm, this
March 8 are turning into fire. In Italy, in many European countries,
in the U.S. and in more than 40 countries around the world, in many
countries oppressed by imperialism, hundreds of thousands of women
join the strike.
The
women’s strike today is the key weapon for the revolutionary march
of women to "burn" at its roots this rotten capitalist,
imperialist and patriarchal social system, source of any oppression
and violence against the majority of women. Moreover, it is the
strategic weapon of the proletarian women to bring their class and
combative line, their autonomy from the bourgeois and petty bourgeois
feminism, in the general struggle of women.
Proletarian
women, workers women, the most oppressed and exploited women, the
poorest ones, who are the majority in our country as well as
worldwide, have not one but a thousand chains to break, and therefore
they do not want to improve this bourgeois system of oppression, they
do not accept it as inevitable or impassable, but struggle hard to
overthrow it.
This strike comes against the most rotten fruit of this capitalist
and imperialist society in decay, the sexual violence, the rapes and
even femicides by the “men who hate women”, mainly perpetrated in
the “sacred family”, but it extends to the struggle against the
general, systemic war carried out by the masters, their governments,
by the bourgeois states on the whole condition of women, with the
deteriorating of their living conditions in the workplace and at
home, discrimination, dismantling the rights won through great
battles, such as abortion. And today more than ever each attack is
accompanied by an open action of suppression of the struggles of
women, those who still rebel, the immigrants women, the prostitutes,
etc. A repression accompanied by racism, sexism, up to sexual
harassment and rapes by security forces.
These
attacks, in a phase of deep crisis of the dominant social system,
every day feed a social, ideological humus of modern Middle Ages
advancing in the imperialist countries, and also new forms of dark
feudal oppression coils in the countries oppressed by imperialism. A
climate of accelerate march toward a modern fascism which today
concentrates in the most vulgar and dark face of Trump in the US.
The
Women’s Strike, that in every way intertwines the struggle as women
with the class struggle, is not only a practical but also cultural,
ideological weapon for a transformation of the the social, workers
movements of struggle, among the proletarians, within the
revolutionary organizations themselves.
The
revolutionary proletarian feminism, the March 8 and beyond, raises
clearly the issue that we need a totally different society, a
socialist society in which women are part of the proletarian power,
towards communism, for a true liberation of women. This society is
the result of the revolution, where the proletarian women are always
a step ahead, in the front line of the general women's movement, to
topple this bourgeois system.
So, the
revolutionary proletarian feminism, following the great example of
the women's movement during the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution
in China and the current example of the revolutionary women in the
forefront in people's wars, raises the red flag of the concept and
practice of the "revolution within the revolution" because
"our life must really change."
Today,
50 years after the Great Cultural Revolution, in which millions of
women have ''assaulted the heaven", and 100 years after the
October Revolution, whose harbinger were the big protests of the
women against the Tsar on 8th
March 1917 – two milestones of humanity – this March 8 we
reaffirm that women need to take in their hands the revolutionary
struggle to transform heaven and earth, to destroy any practice and
ideology of oppression. Women - in the words of Mao Tse-tung - “are
half the sky, and they you must win it!”
Therefore,
the March 8 we are close to the fighters women, the revolutionary
communist women who are fighting in the people's wars and give their
blood contribution to the new democratic revolution in the march
towards socialism, that is crucial to achieve their emancipation and
liberation. As well as we are close to women who, from Palestine to
Rojava, play a role in the front line, even when not inspired by the
revolutionary science of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, fighting the
reactionary regimes and reactionary forces, both at the service of
imperialism, which try to crush them.
Particularly, we
strongly support to the Indian comrades of CPI (Maoist), who in one
of the largest countries in the world, in the heart of the
contradiction between imperialism and the oppressed peoples, are
making alive the strength of women all over the grounds, and give a
contribution to all women in the world, as already happened in Peru
and Nepal and as happens today in Turkey/Northern Kurdistan.
Long live the red and proletarian March 8!
Long live the Women’s
Strike!
Long live the
revolutionary proletarian feminism!
Long live the struggle
of women n the world as mighty force for the revolution!
