Radical Women Meeting
"Not the Church, Not the State. Women Must Decide our Fate!
Stand Up for Reproductive Freedom for ALL Women"
Limited as they are, women's reproductive rights are under fire. Abortion
clinics are under tight protective security from rightwing terror. In
Melbourne, a guard was recently killed. Abortion is still a crime. The
Howard Government is trying to further impose his "family values" by
allowing only certain women access to fertility treatment. Women with
disabilities, Indigenous women and other women of colour are sterilised.
Childcare is only for those who can afford it.
The good news is feminists are fighting back, and we can defeat the Right!
Join us in a panel discussion with Jackie Lynch, Socialist Alliance
candidate for Batman in the upcoming federal election, Melissa Venville,
federal Queer Officer for the National Union of Students, and Debbie
Brennan, veteran reproductive rights activist.
Meetings are free and held at Solidarity Salon, 580 Sydney Road, Brunswick.
Dinner is served at 6.30 pm for a $6.00 donation. For more information,
