Exploitation of working women – irhal!

פורסם ב March 21, 2013 | No Comments
Women in white, Jews and Arabs, and like-minded men, marched together along Ben Tsion Boulevard from King George street to the corner of Rothschild Boulevard and HaBima Theater. There was a lot of energy, with calls shouted out to the rhythm given by Asma Aghbarieh-Zahalka of Daam on the megaphone. She shouted: "chauvinism" and the marchers answer "irhal" ("go away" in Arabic). "Exploitation of working women – irhal, sexual assault – irhal, military strikes – irhal"… The Boulevard is too short, it turns out, for real protest. ("Irhal", in Arabic, you may recall, is the word Egyptian protesters shouted out, calling Mubarak to leave.)

As they marched, the women shouted slogans in Hebrew and Arabic calling for fair employment, condemning unemployment and poverty, expressing solidarity with the social workers (who have been in an ongoing labor dispute), and demanding both “bread and roses.”

A Statement for International Women’s Day, March 8, 2011

פורסם ב March 3, 2011 | No Comments
In these very days, marking 100 years of Women's International Day, a new chapter is being written in history by millions of women and men in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Bahrain and elsewhere. We salute the workers who first raised the banner of revolt in Egypt in 2008, who persisted and who now see the fruit of their sacrifices. This is the springtime of the peoples in the Arab world, opening a gateway of hope for all. At last we may dare to believe that we can determine our destinies, securing the right to live and work in dignity.
