November 25th marks the beginning of Against Gender-Based Violence, and begins with the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. Every year wages a campaign to honor , the Mirabal sisters who whose blood and government sanctioned killing became eventual symbols of feminists fighting against political repression. On November 25th 1960, Patria, Minerva and Maria Teresa Mirabal were brutally murdered in the Dominican Republic by agents of the country’s dictator Rafael Trujillo. The three sisters were vibrant political activists who publicly spoke out against the Trujillo regime. Their deaths drove the anti-Trujillo movement to new strengths, and activated transnational organizing, mobilization and collective solidarity. 30 years later in 1991, November 25th was declared the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. The campaign runs every year from November 25th to December 10th, Human Rights Day and includes several other important days as well.

This year, ’s 16 Days of Activism theme is titled . As transnational and indigenous women, we understand invasion of land is inextricably linked to violence against women. We recognize the uprising of the Mirabal sisters and the people of the Dominican Republic as a struggle for sovereignty of homelands & self-determination of bodies. We know too well how the genocidal aspirations of fascist regimes r**e and pillage women are of the same nature as the rapine of motherlands. .
We salute the Mirabal sisters as current organizers against the exploitation of land & women. We honor their legacy by continuing the fight in order to transform entire nations and shift the paradigm towards genuine liberation. QUE VIVAN LAS MARIPOSAS! 🦋🦋🦋

Rest in power, sister.
