Yesterday was international women‘s day 2022. Women in the whole world were celebrating, some went on strike, others organized protests and made their living conditions but also their fights visible. In Freiburg, around 4,000 people took over the streets. They gathered at the Old Synagogue Square and raised awareness on the diverse struggles of women and their demands. Participants of the protest expressed their solidarity, sympathy and anger about what is happening to women, children and their husbands in Ukraine right now. They also criticized racism, sexism and discrimination of all kinds. The protest was organized by the "FLINTA* Alliance". This includes women, lesbians, inter-, trans-, non-binary and agender people.
In this program, we will have:
