The feminist movement of Alicante will take to the streets to demand “a real and effective equality” | Radio Alicante | Present

The province of Alicante is preparing to live a March 8 very different but just as vindictive.

The Government sub-delegation of Alicante has authorized the celebration of 23 concentrations in the province, on the occasion of International Women’s Day, which will have a very small number of participants, all of them identified, and without official calls.

From the Alicante Feminist Platform explain that they have organized six concentrations in the capital, which will last only half an hour for the reading of a manifesto and that will be of groups between five thirty people at most.

Your spokesperson, Yolanda Diaz explains that, despite the health situation, it is a day of protest, where women, accompanied by men, have to express their Rights social, civil and labor that they have achieved over time but mainly, those that remain to be achieved.

Under the motto, “Weaving feminist networks for Equality”, Díaz demands to end the salary gaps and in the occupation, the abolition of the prostitution system, which generates violence, and everything that has to do with pornography. “It seems that we have that real and effective equality but it is not like that” he declares. He adds that the claim is also for those women who do not have the right, for example, to abortion, as occurs in Poland.

For its part, from the 8M Assembly of Alicante They have also organized a small rally to be held at a point in the center of the city to claim that there is still a feminist agenda “very long in which it is not working”.

Your spokesperson, Emilia Caballero assures that “feminism is in a difficult moment” and admit that they expected another position from the Ministry of Equality from Irene Montero, which, he says, does not meet with organizations. It denounces, precisely, that the Ley Trans that it wants to promote has many problems at the legal level. Caballero is committed to putting care at the center of any policy, and trying to ensure that justice takes into account the problems faced by women.

Emilia Caballero also calls on the administrations to adopt measures and resources so that women can get out of situations of abuse. Also, bet on the affective – sexual education in schools to prevent children from having pornography as a reference.

By the way, this Monday, Radio Alicante presents: ‘Women leaders’, a special program with women who lead decision-making in politics, business, culture or on the front lines of the fight against the pandemic. This special program will be tomorrow, starting at 12:20 in Today for Today Alicante.
