2011: Call for the March 8 Daytime Demonstration and Night March
Tomorrow is March 8!
Another March 8 when we cannot say we are celebrating our Women’s Day!
Not to celebrate March 8, Women’s Day, but once again to say together with women “Stop Femicides”,
In a country where many women are killed by men every day,
– To prosecutors who trivialise women’s criminal complaints against violence and do not issue protection orders for women,
– To courts that regard killers’ reasons as legitimate and apply “unjust-provocation reductions” to their sentences,
– To the State Minister Responsible for Women and the Family, who can call this massacre of women isolated incidents,
– To the government and the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, which have not even put this issue on their agenda, let alone established a commission or crisis desk,
Women Are Killed Every Day by the Men Closest to Them!
To say: What More Are You Waiting for to Stop This Massacre?
We will be outside Kadıköy Courthouse at 10 a.m.
The Night March is at 7:30 p.m. We are marching from Taksim to Tünel!
