Text of the page (random words):
gy vibrancy and vision of the first women s liberation movement conference held at ruskin college in 1970 building on the foundations that it laid this conference will reflect on the historical significance of the 1970 and later conferences share information and skills for contemporary feminist activism create and celebrate feminist art and look to the future of feminism s speakers will cut across boundaries of age class location and sexuality and voices that were originally absent will now be heard it is hard to imagine how a conference that is so prohibitively expensive will cut across class boundaries to be working class often means that we do not have access to the funds to do the things we would like to do and many things are put out of our reach as women living under capitalism all our work is undervalued and underpaid and we receive no income for the work as carers we often do many of us in the uk are dependent on paltry state benefits and those of us who are in paid work are facing increasing strain on our already stretched budgets the feminisation of poverty is something that we are all aware of and much grass roots feminist activism targets this fact much of feminist activism is unpaid we do it for free and in our spare time because we care about women and the conditions we face the majority of feminist groups organisations and campaigns are underfunded if funded at all as feminists we recognise the oppressive and inherently exploitative nature of capitalism we feel its effects in our everyday lives so we act in solidarity with those around the world who experience the far worse effects of the capitalist nightmare death poverty ecological destruction etc the past few years have seen an increase in feminist activism around the uk much of it anticapitalist and it is only right that this should be celebrated the first conference 40 years ago was dynamic and historically significant and it would be great if this conference could build on this we need to rebuild the women s liberation movement in order to effect the societal change we need however we cannot build a movement if only those with the privilege of ready cash get to contribute we should always be about accessibility and inclusiveness after all we are organising around the very fact that patriarchal society is not inclusive of women and actively excludes people on the basis of gender class race sexuality ability age etc the means must reflect the vision how we organise must reflect the vision of what we re fighting for anything less is counter revolutionary that means that events must be accessible affordable and always inclusive in relation to childcare at the wlm 40 conference the original conference had a free crèche that was organised by men this conference will have no childcare but will instead offer parents or carers a list of registered local childminders with whom they can place their child and presumably pay for this themselves one of the first four demands of the women s liberation movement which ironically were formulated at the first ruskin conference in 1970 was the demand for free 24 hour childcare because feminists have always recognised that many women have always been unfairly excluded from much of mainstream life by their childcare and caring responsibilities the demand for decent free childcare for all has always been one of the basics of feminist activism how can we demand this of society in general if our own events are lacking in decent free childcare women who are parents and carers are often in underpaid work or are dependent on state benefits the money we do have has to pay for our families and not just ourselves the price of this conference will rule it out for many working class and lower paid women especially parents and carers and the lack of free childcare is a double insult because of the way this conference has been organised most of us are not here although we would very much like to be will we be missed radicalfeminists4wlmat40 hotmail co uk posted in uncategorized tagged childcare meetings take action working class women 1 comment some feminist events happening this weekend in

comments plotting and scheming for welfare not workfare posted on december 12 2009 by anarchafeministkolektiv please repost on 12 november it became legal to force unemployed people to work for their benefits to do 40 hour weeks for under a third of the minimum wage the government s welfare reform act introduced work for your benefit pilot schemes which once completed can be rolled out without any further debate it also attacked single parents who face sanctions if they fail to prepare for work outside the home as soon as their child turns three and people with impairments disabilities or severe and enduring illnesses two days later members of twenty three different groups from around the uk met to share information and plan resistance to these pernicious attacks which will take their toll on working class and low income communities groups present included unemployed workers unions from six cities across the uk the disabled people s direct action network southwark mind winvisible women with visible and invisible disabilities singlemothers self defence part of global women s strike and members of the union in the department of work and pensions pcs they were joined by feminist and other groups all listed below the strength to be gained from meeting in solidarity with each other was immense and created a real sense that a movement is building a movement which will not only fight the immediate attacks of the welfare abolition act but draw out the connections between our struggles and together challenge the ideology driving them the act seeks to make our worth dependent on work work defined in the really narrow terms of waged work for someone else s profit by making us compete with those in waged work for non existent jobs it helps drive down wages and conditions we all take the brunt as the rich make even more money out of us we want solidarity with and from people in low income temporary and insecure work these are the jobs that work for your benefit would replace we want caring to be recognised as important work in society single parents are already working and benefits are their entitlement to a social wage we want justice for people with severe or enduring illnesses the drive to get people off incapacity benefits and employment and support allowance and into work is making people more ill with stress only we know what we are capable of and it is wrong for conditions and sanctions to be imposed on us to force us into unsuitable work unwanted work related activity or motivation sessions which press us into their programmes of treatmentfor addictions and other conditions we want the right not to work people not in waged work contribute loads to their communities we do not want to be forced into mind numbing insecure work that leaves us no better off or worse off than on benefitsand definitely not at 1 27 an hour we want free high quality public services to support older people andpeople with impairments disabilities people should not have to become employers managing individual budgets in order to access the care they need we want to stand in solidarity with migrant workers just as unemployed people are pitted against people in work so migrant workers are pittedagainst us we believe that we must stand together and demand all of our rights together we want to fight privatisation of the department for work and pensions attacks on dwp and jobcentre plus workers are attacks on our rights toaccess welfare we will support the pcs fight against cuts we want an end to the apartheid system of benefits healthcare and housing for asylum seekers uk border agency support should be scrapped where people are forced to survive on incomes far below benefit levels which are already set at subsistence level no slum housing
