Apologies for re-posting. The date and time were missing from the original. Melbourne Radical Women Meeting. Everyone is welcome! Thursday, 5 April, 7.30 pm FEMINISTS RISE UP AGAINST THE GLOBAL BACKLASH Around the world, rightwing regimes are being met by grassroots resistance. Come along to hear about international and national struggles against the likes of John Howard, George Bush and Saddam Hussein. A panel of dynamic speakers will feature Surma Hamid, organiser for the Committee in Defence of Iraqi Women's Rights; Maria Mardones, Chilean feminist and community activist; and Alison Thorne, Radical Women member and a leader in Socialist Alliance. We'll explore what drives the Right, why it has become a global force and how a multi-issue feminist movement can defeat it. A tasty dinner, with vegetarian option, is served at 6.30 pm for a $6.00 donation.
