Last weekend at the Anarchist Movement Conference in the UK, a group of women interrupted the conference with a direct action – they played a video they created called “No Pretence” about sexism in the anarchist movement.
On their website, nopretence.wordpress.com, the anonymous group says,
“This is what was said.
“We make no pretence. This is a conference by and for anarchists. And by anarchists, we mean those opposed to the state, all forms of nationalism, capitalism, sexual/race/gender oppression and all forms of exploitation and domination,” Anarchist Movement Conference 09 Call Out
This is our response.
“
Pretty effing cool.
They also have a list of links about sexism in Leftist movements, many of which we had on out womyns caucus wiki pg. Check it out!
