Feministas en Holanda

🔥 Read the Decolonial Block 8M2026 Manifesto! 🔥

✊🏾 We march and mobilize today against the militarization and criminalization of our bodies and territories - from Abya Yala to Iran, Lebanon and Palestine.

✊🏾We walk on the shoulders of our ancestors and our shared histories of resistance against patriarchal violence and colonial power. Our feminism is for the defence of life, against fascism and capitalism we put care and radical tenderness at the center. We fight for nothing less than the sovereignty and self-determination of our bodies and territories!

This 8M and every day we say:
💜 Long live the working women and q***r folx in struggle!
💚¡Ni una menos, vivas nos queremos!
💜Stop the US-Zionist War Killing Machine
💚Free Palestine, Free Congo, Free Sudan!

🇵🇸❤️

🔥 OUR CODE OF CONDUCT🔥
READ, SHARE, EMBODY

Our block is rooted in collective liberation and collective care.

Our feminism fights all oppression: for Palestinian liberation, trans & q***r liberation, Black & Indigenous liberation, and the liberation of all oppressed people and territories. We show up knowing our struggles are interconnected, and that none of us are free until all of us are free.

Collective care is a practice. It means we look out for one another. It means we move with awareness, respect boundaries, and take responsibility for the impact of our actions. It means we create a space where everyone can participate with dignity and safety.

This block is free from racism and xenophobia, cis-heterosexism, islamophobia, transphobia, q***rphobia, slutshaming, whorephobia, ableism, and all other forms of violence and discrimination. These are not abstract values; they are the conditions that make collective power possible.

Accountability is part of care.

Behaviors that violate this code harm our community and weaken our shared struggle. They will not be tolerated. If harm occurs, it will be addressed through collective accountability.

Our security comrades wearing green vests are part of our collective care infrastructure. They are there to support, de-escalate, intervene when necessary, and help uphold the political and ethical commitments of this block. If you experience or witness behavior that contradicts our code, reach out to them. You are not alone.

We protect each other. We intervene for each other. We build the world we are fighting for, in the streets.

The streets are ours. Our liberation is collective. ✊

✨🌸 Join us this 8M! 🌸✨

On International Women’s Day, we do not merely commemorate — we rise. ✊🏽🔥

We rise in the footsteps of those who fought before us. 🌹
We rise with those resisting now — in the streets ✊🏽, in classrooms, in workplaces, at borders, in occupied lands. 🌍

Across the world, women and gender-diverse people confront a patriarchal, racist, neoliberal, and colonial order that organizes inequality and calls it normal.
We call it violence. 🔥

Violence against our bodies.
Violence against our autonomy.
Violence against our territories.

We demand the right to decide.
The right to live free from fear.
The right to stay alive. 🕊️

Criminalising abortion. Denying contraception. Silencing survivors.
These are not isolated acts — they are systemic human rights violations. ❌

Gender-based violence is not private.
Institutional neutrality is not impartiality — it is complicity. ✊🏽

As migrant feminist women and gender-diverse people, we know:
There is no freedom without economic independence. 💜
No justice while racism, border regimes, labour exploitation, and precarity shape our lives.

We reject extractivism that plunders land and body. 🌱
We reject militarism, imperial wars, occupations, and displacement.

From every territory where resistance is born —
from communities defending land,
to those fighting femicide,
to migrants demanding dignity —
our struggles are connected. 🌍

We are not asking for privileges.
We demand rights. ✊🏽

We are not statistics.
Not one less.

Without economic, social, and political justice, there is no freedom.
Without global justice, there is no real democracy. 🔥

With love. With resistance. With memory. With hope. 💜

LONG LIVE FEMINIST STRUGGLE — PAST AND PRESENT! ✊🏽
LONG LIVE GLOBAL SOLIDARITY! 🌍
See you on 8M. ✨🌸

ALERTAAAA 8M is around the corner! 🔥

This year, we will be part of the Feminist March in Amsterdam, and come together as a network of feministas from the South, united in a critical block, to refuse complicity, and the normalisation of violence. In preparation, we are organizing a gathering to meet each other and plot together. We will have a gathering moment with food and music, materials available for banners, a moment to rehearse songs, and we will continue working on our arpilleras! We will close the day around the bonfire! 🔥🔥🔥
Join us from 13:00 on. If you are planning to come with kids, you can join us from 10:00 (check the programme below)

19: Closing moment and bonfire 🔥

We see this as a space to strengthen our tejido, our network and prepare our voices. Gender-based violence is not a series of isolated incidents, it is structural, rooted in ongoing patriarchal and colonial systems that sustain repression, inequality, state violence, and complicity with genocide. These same structures shape policy and create the conditions for feminicide to increase. We go to the streets to demand accountability, justice, and transformation, an intersectional feminist approach.

This gathering centers BIPOC women, trans, non-binary, and gender-expansive folx who do not see themselves represented in mainstream space
Join us on March 8!

✊🏾💜💚 As Feministas en Holanda, we stand for sovereignty, dignity, and self-determination with the peoples of Venezuela and with all peoples in resistance.

⛓️‍💥 History and collective memory leave no room for doubt: imperialism has never saved us. From Abya Yala to Palestine, we reject militarization, foreign intervention, and the colonial-capitalist-patriarchal logics that render our bodies, lives and territories disposable.

⛓️‍💥 At the same time, we are clear: our struggles are also against internal authoritarian projects that sustain themselves through repression, violence, and the silencing of their own peoples. Liberation it is fought for, on all fronts, and always from below.

🫀 Our political commitment is with the peoples who resist, organize, care for one another, and defend life against all forms of domination.

*Abya Yala is the name gifted by the Kuna indigenous people to name the body that the Americas is. It is said to have various meanings: fertile land, mature land, blood that runs free, land that is bloomed. The name has been reclaimed by indigenous peoples and progressive sectors as a form of resistance and rejection of the colonial construction of the Americas imposed by Europeans.

Tomorrow is - the International Day against Gender-based and Patriarchal Violence 💜✊🏾

This is a day where we remind each other that patriarchal violence is not only what happens in our homes or our streets but also what happens when genocidal entities bomb communities, corporations destroy ecosystems & livelihoods, and borders decide whose lives matter. The reality is, patriarchy never exists in isolation of capital extraction and colonial power ⛓️☄️🔻 🇵🇸 🇸🇩 🇨🇩

Around the world, women, trans, and non-binary people are taking the streets not only to denounce the pandemic of sexist violence, but also to remember those who should still be alive today and to fight for a world where all of us can live with dignity, safety, and joy 💚

Here in the Netherlands grassroots feminist collectives are also mobilising and organizing. So find a local action and join, because our bodies and territories demand liberation from all violence! 📢 🔥

As we mark - the International Day for the Elimination of Gender-Based and Patriarchal Violence - we invite you to join us for two collective spaces: a vigil and a community gathering.

💜 EVENT 1 - VIGIL in Rotterdam 💚

“Not One Less (Ni Una Menos): Resisting Feminicidal Violence – A Vigil for Memory, Solidarity and Justice”
📍 Rotterdam Central Station
📅 Tuesday, 25 November
⏰ 18:30 – 19:00
🕯️Wear Black. Bring a candle. Bring flowers. Bring a photograph. Bring a banner. Bring a name that must not be forgotten.

This will be a vigil of remembrance and resistance. We honor the women, girls, trans and non-binary siblings stolen from us by patriarchal and feminicidal violence - in the Netherlands, Abya Yala, Palestine and everywhere gender-based violence destroys life.

💜 EVENT 2 - GATHERING (RSVP Required!) in Utrecht 💚

“Not One Less (Ni Una Menos): A Gathering for Memory, Solidarity and Justice”
📍 (Pauwstraat 13A)
📅 29 November
⏰ 16:30 – 21:30
🫶🏽In collaboration & co-creation with , , &
📧RSVP by emailing [email protected] by Tuesday, 25th November. We have a cap of 25 participants (on a first come first served basis).

This will be a gathering of collective memory and radical care. We will come together to reflect, organize, and transform our grief and rage into a collective strength. Through art, voices, mapping and community practices, we honor those whose lives have been marked or taken by patriarchal, racist and colonial violence. It will be a space to connect, to heal, and to reaffirm our commitment to keep fighting until all of us are free.

*These events center women, girls, trans and non-binary people - especially those from marginalized communities - but they are open to everyone: families, friends, communities, comrades, and all who believe that every one of us deserves to live free from violence, with safety, dignity, freedom and joy.

Ni Una Menos, Vivas Nos Queremos! Not one less, We want Us Alive! 💜💚

🔥 Until all of us are free.

🚨 Hi loves, don’t let the far right fool you!🚨

📣 While bigots and racists in the Netherlands continue to spread lies about migrants and racialized communities to distract us from the real crisis: gender-based violence, we bring you **10 actual facts about feminicide** they don’t want you to see but that you should know about!

The far-right has never cared about women’s, trans’ and q***r people’s safety. They only care about winning votes and sowing division and hate. But we fight back with community, collective care and feminist self-defense 💜✊🏽💚
