Good morning feminists,
Happy Orange Day to you!!!
As you may be aware every 25th of each month, we have a theme to unite together to end violence against women and girls, and this month focuses upon violence against older women.
Why not follow the website link to see how you can get involved with the project- http://www.unwomen.org/en/what-we-do/ending-violence-against-women/take-action?utm_source=Say+NO+%E2%80%93+UNiTE+to+End+Violence+against+Women&utm_campaign=36d8361636-
This is one of our most serious problems in society, and the UN recognises that we need to continue to raise awareness of the mistreatment of elders on an international scale.
Wearing a splash of orange today will brighten your mood on the first day of the working week, as we continue to demonstrate our pledge to improve conditions for all women!!
I leave you with this phenomenal quote from Maya Angelou that perfectly encapsulates our shared feminist solidarity.
“Each time a woman stands up for herself,without knowing it possibly, without claiming it, she stands up for all women.” Maya Angelou
