A-Infos (en) Germany, lieberation -- ON TOUR III - TWO LECTURES ON THE FEMINIST ACTION WEEKEND IN ULM -- CONSULTING SUPPORT (de) [machine translation]

on the weekend of the o4. - o6.o5.18 we will visit our companions on their weekend of 
action with two lectures on the topics "total liberation - an introduction" and 
"relationship anarchy". ---- here the announcement text and the link to the event: ---- 
"Whether it be the #Metoo debate or the demonstrations in Kandel by self-proclaimed women 
fighters, the discussion about feminism is more relevant than ever. ---- The #Metoo debate 
has brought the issue of sexism into society and sparked a major discourse on overbearing 
behavior by men in positions of power. At the same time, many women * took the liberty to 
write testimonials on sexual assaults and rape on social media. Too often, these reviews 
have been trivialized or relativized in the past. ---- In Kandel on March 3, 2018, 4,000 
people belonging to the political right, from AfD to open fascists, took to the streets to 
propagandize their racist propaganda under the guise of women's rights. At the same time, 
however, the right-wing spectrum represents an outdated family and image of women. For 
example, the AfD wants to reduce monies for single parents and criminalize abortions.

From May 4th to May 6th, 2018, we will organize a feminist action weekend to pick up on 
current debates and to exchange views and opinions. Because the #Metoo debate was just a 
small break out of a structural problem that needs to be attacked as a whole. Furthermore, 
we do not want to let racists dictate that they fight for "our women" dictate what 
feminism is and how it should look.
The statement "our women" possessive and reduces the woman to an object that must be 
protected from rape by not "German" men. The double standard shows up at the latest, when 
it is addressed that this is a problem of society as a whole: Then attacks by supposedly 
Germans are relativized: "she wanted it so, if that attracts so" ...

At the same time, we will broaden the debate to include a queer perspective, meaning that 
we oppose a classical division of man and woman, support trans and inter-people, 
solidarize ourselves with all lesbians, gays and bisexuals and the struggles associated 
with them.

- on Friday, the 4.5. Therefore, in the Falkenkeller at 19 o'clock a lecture on "total 
liberation" takes place. Then there is a concert.

- on 5.5. starts at 15 o'clock on the cathedral square Ulm our demonstration "breaking out 
instead of endurance" with loud protest, exciting speeches and good music. Here we will 
attack patriarchal structures and the construct of genders. At the end of the evening 
there will be a lecture on "Küfa" (vegan food for a donation) and at 6 pm a lecture about 
"relationship anarchy"
- on Sunday, the 6th of May. Let's conclude the whole thing at 2 pm with a reading "Qeere 
Intervention" and a panel discussion.
Lectures and readings take place at Falkenkeller, Ziegelländeweg 3

For an anti-racist, queer feminism! Fire and flame to the Patriarchate! "
