Since 2017 a coalition of feminist, reproductive freedom, housing, immigrant justice, and community organizations—as well as union members, worker centers, worker coops, mutual aid and artist collectives—has been reclaiming the anti-capitalist feminist roots of International Working Women's Day (aka 8M) in NYC. Anchored by the Undocumented Women’s Fund since 2020, we have been taking on the streets through a myriad of ways: marching, picketing, rallying and engaging in public art making.
This year we’re calling on artists, organizations and other community members engaged in struggles at the intersection of gender, class, and immigration to rally around the slogan: When Immigrant Women Stop, the World Stops with Us. The Women's Strike NYC Fest 2025 will be held on Saturday March 8th, 2025 in Maria Hernandez Park in Bushwick Brooklyn. Join us for an afternoon of political education and collective power building through art, music, performance and informational tables with neighbors old and new!
