SUMMARY:A Day Without a Woman
DESCRIPTION:On International Women’s Day\, March 8th\, women and allies will act together for equity\, justice and the human rights of women\, through a one-day demonstration of economic solidarity. \nThe Women’s March supports the feminists of color and grassroots groups organizing the International Women’s Strike on International Women’s Day\, March 8th\, 2017. In the same spirit of love and liberation that inspired the Women’s March\, together we will mark the day by recognizing the enormous value that women of all backgrounds add to our socio-economic system–while receiving lower wages and experiencing greater inequities\, vulnerability to discrimination\, sexual harassment\, and job insecurity. \nAnyone\, anywhere\, can join by making March 8th A Day Without a Woman\, in one or all of the following ways: \n\nWomen take the day off\, from paid and unpaid labor\nAvoid shopping for one day (with exceptions for small\, women- and minority-owned businesses).\nWear RED in solidarity with A Day Without A Woman\n\nThe Women’s March celebrates the labor the International Women’s Strike organizers and others in planning global actions. We are also inspired by recent courageous actions like the “Bodega strike” lead by Yemeni immigrant store owners in New York City and the Day Without Immigrants across the U.S. We applaud the efforts of #GrabYourWallet and others to bring public accountability to unethical corporate practices. As we mark A Day Without a Woman\, we do so in support and solidarity of these and all efforts for equity\, justice and human rights. \nWhen millions of us stood together in January\, we saw clearly that our army of love greatly outnumbers that of fear\, greed and hatred. Let’s raise our voices together again\, to say that women’s rights are human rights\, regardless of a woman’s race\, ethnicity\, religion\, immigration status\, sexual identity\, gender expression\, economic status\, age or disability. \nRecognizing the multiple\, intersecting identities of women\, we support and admire these efforts: \n#DIVESTDAPL\n#GRABYOURWALLET\nFor more information on A Day Without A Woman\, please see their FAQs. \nFor a template letter to inform your employer of your participation in A Day Without A Woman\, click here. \nFor a template “Out of the Office” auto-response email\, click here. \nFor social media content and graphics\, please check out this page.
