@anoukwear RT by @hk_watch: #UN #CEDAW Committee Member Bandana Rana has just asked on what grounds the #Hongkong #internationalwomensday March was cancelled this year, and how the #HKSAR ensures that the #NSL does not violate #womensrights. Appreciate this sharp question and looking forward to the reply https://nitter.hongkongers.net/anoukwear/status/1656955128308461569#m

2023年3月8日国际妇女节,东京妇女游行成功举办。游行中人们高呼性别平等、反对歧视与暴力、反对军事化和战争、提高工资等口号,共同发声争取女性权益。这些口号说出了大家的心声,让人觉得很有力量,现在我们试着将日文翻译成中文与更多人分享。
On March 8th, 2023, Women's March Tokyo was held successfully. During the parade, people chanted slogans for gender equality, against discrimination and violence, against militarization and war, and for raising wages, jointly advocating for women's rights.

每年日本的妇女节纪念游行的前置演讲环节中,都会听到来自世界各地群体的发声,但从来都没有中国人的身影。
今年开始有了,这是一位来自中国女性的声音,向世界讲述中国女性自己的故事。
毎年日本で行われる国際女性デーのイベントでは、世界中からの声が聞かれますが、中国の人たちの姿はこれまで見られませんでした。今年からは、中国の女性の声が加わり、中国の女性たちのストーリーを世界に伝えています。
During the speech segment preceding the annual International Women's Day parade in Japan, voices from around the world are heard, but the presence of Chinese individuals has been absent. This year, a Chinese woman's voice joins the conversation, sharing the stories of Chinese women with the world.

"In a world where women are free as all people are free, a stone is not a weapon and water is not a commodity... A world where women are free as all people are free is not one where diverse faces are placed behind old ideas. The ideas must be made anew."
Last week in Boston, I spoke at an #InternationalWomensDay event with Iran, Ukraine, Uyghur and Chinese communities, plus Planned Parenthood. A recap and my remarks, bookended by two ancient tales about stones and water:

I wish I had pics of my gramma from when she worked at Motorola
She worked on the line that made silicon wafers for chips
Sometimes she’d bring me ones that failed testing, they were fun to play with as a kid 😂
She was born and raised in a shack in Kentucky, that, when we eventually visited , we thought it was a joke. Like “where is the actual house, gramma?”
She didn’t program, send anyone to the moon, but I knew women worked on tech from an early age thanks to her.

More from Barbara Alice Mann on how appalled Europeans were at Native women's power, and how they erased Native women from history:
European colonizers might've interpreted Attakullakulla's question, "where are your women?" as "where is your property?"
But from a #Native, this question meant something more like "where are your leaders?"
Scholar Barbara Alice Mann (Ohio Bear Clan Seneca) writes:
"In 1757, the great #Cherokee speaker and chief Atagulkalu (Attakullakulla) arrived at a meeting in Charles Town, South Carolina, but he hesitated to conduct business with its all-male European council. Prodded by the Europeans to get busy, he turned impatiently to Governor William Henry Lyttelton and demanded, 'But where are your women?'"

On this #InternationalWomensDay, I am reminded of the courage my mom had when running for our rural south school board back in the 80s as the first ever woman candidate.
She won.
I remember handing out these cards to voters, without an understanding of the importance of the moment. As I grew older, I gained perspective and respect for her choice.
It wasn’t easy. She fought to make mother’s voices heard in the board room. I’m proud to say she paved the way for the many that followed. 🦸♀️

In honor of #InternationalWomensDay I would like to remind every woman of the (not so) secret weapon we possess: the ability to describe a period in excruciating detail. Here are some good example phrases for strategic deployment:
Cramps are like...remember the chest bursting alien in Alien? But in your underpants.
It's basically Shark Week. Lots of blood and you don't know who the next target of wrath will be until it happens.
Do you remember the elevator in The Shining?
"I honor every woman who has strength enough to step out of the beaten path…to be laughed at, if necessary. That is the bitter pill we must all swallow…but I regard these pills as tonics quite essential to one’s mental salvation." https://www.themarginalian.org/2019/02/27/harriet-hosmer-figuring/ #InternationalWomensDay
Boys will be boys when boys are what we have been taught that boys are—whereas girls end up being no more than an invective when they help themselves to more than their allotted corner. Sometimes, women’s rights come down to equal rights to be loud and obnoxious. Sometimes, feminism comes down to the right to be an asshole. #InternationalWomensDay #IWD #BoysWillBeBoys #WomensRights #GenderEquality #feminism #AbFab #HerNominess
Today we celebrate women for a day, but in the Choctaw calendar women have their own month. It's called Tek i̱hʋshi. Women's month.
In the old ways, Choctaw civilization was among the many Indigenous North American societies that revered two spirit (trans) women as a priestly class. Fuck yeah. What a world.
When men prepared for battle (or more often, for stickball, which is how our ancestors handled most disputes), they'd power up by painting their faces with menstrual blood, while the women stayed up all night making fetishes to curse the opponents.
Hard. As. Nails.
Plus, Choctaw women went hard with tattoos. Absolutely not to be fucked with.
For #InternationalWomensDay I am keeping my mouth shut, and reading what all the women in the hashtag are saying. As one should do more frequently than one day a year.
Happy #InternationalWomensDay from me, a woman who spent this evening fixing a man’s wonky shelves with her power tools while he fetched me vodka lemonades and got my dinner on the table💪
Tek i̱nittak na yokpa! ♀️
Happy International Women's Day! ♀️
Extra blessings especially to all you trans and/or Indigenous women.
In tradish Choctaw culture, your clan was the family of your mother's mother's mother. The clan's oldest living elder was the clan mother. Clan mothers were like the Godfather. All of society answered to them. They held veto power over laws. Even chiefs couldn't fw them.

Cause trans masc folk and trans men can hear ya, and they don't need nor deserve that shit
Happy International Women's Day to ALL of the fierce, compassionate, beautiful, intelligent, introspective, self aware women fighting battles every single day. Whether you are screaming with frustration, weeping with joy, or simply recovering from a bad day, I am really proud to be one of you.💟

This #InternationalWomensDay, I am so proud to celebrate our women Airbnb Hosts, who make up over half of the community.
Nothing is more beautiful than a woman who is happy to be herself. We are grateful for the hardworking women who are part of our team. Thank you for all that you do, and may we continue to support and empower women everywhere. Happy International Women's Day!👭🏻

Since 2020 we’ve partnered w/ @GS10KWomen initiative - a game-changing program for women entrepreneurs to effectively grow their businesses. As part of #InternationalWomensDay, we’re welcoming an inspiring new class of fellows to @Bloomberg’s New York, London, & Beijing offices.




Did you know that women represent just 27% of managerial positions worldwide? This #InternationalWomensDay, we’re highlighting Bloomberg programs that are helping achieve workplace equity for women and the work that remains to be done. https://bloom.bg/3vP8Pn1 #InclusionInAction
