Day Without Men 2020
25 July at 11:00 am – 4:00 pm
rs21 is organising a day of discussion run for, and by, women and non-binary socialists and revolutionaries. This year it will be run remotely over Zoom – register here.
The day is organised by and run for women and non-binary people, with the aim of bringing women and non-binary people together to learn from each other, organise together, and build one another’s confidence to participate in key political discussions and debates. We are a trans-inclusive organisation and trans women and non-binary people are welcome and encouraged to attend.
The event will take place on Saturday 25 July and consist of two sessions, with a social over Zoom afterwards.
- 11am – 1pm: Trans rights and how to tackle the main arguments wielded by transphobes. We will consider the general context underpinning trans rights in the UK, with a speaker focusing on transphobes’ arguments around early transition and childhood, and a speaker focusing on arguments that transphobes use around sexual violence. We will move on to discuss campaigns and activism against transphobia towards the end of the session.
- 2pm – 3.30pm: Envisioning collective care: social reproduction, health, care and work. We will discuss how the restructuring of care under capitalism has changed social relations and how we would like to see care change as we resist capitalism.
We then hope to have a Zoom social!
