The organizations and groups that make up the Campaign for the Right to Free and Free Abortion, faced with the onslaught of extreme right-wing groups, religious groups, anti-choice groups, anti-rights groups, anti-gender groups, conservative governments and political parties that all over the world think, they debate, legislate and restrict the right to decide about our own body and the life we want to live, they call us to join the international call for next September 28, International Day for the Decriminalization of Abortion.
As every year, we regroup our forces to make visible the struggles that are unfolding from the various territories to respond to the MASCALIST, PATRIARCHAL AND EXTRACTIVIST offensive. We take to the streets the battles we fight every day when we approach the authorities to demand changes and improvements, when we organize in assemblies and reach agreements, when we accompany people who want an abortion and who find themselves alone, rejected by the Administration and the health system, when we talk with the neighbors, with the mothers at the school gates, with those closest to us, about our rights as women and heterodissidents…
We will march through towns and cities with the same cry, in Ponent and Pirineu to guarantee the equity of access that does not arrive and in the Les Corts neighborhood to once again denounce the persecution and harassment experienced by women and professionals who practice abortions on the part of these fundamentalist groups. Despite the laws that have been passed and which oblige institutions to protect and shield this right in the face of so many threats, these campaigns of assault on the right to abortion continue to be allowed with total impunity and without consequences. We have been denouncing it for some time and we will continue like this: “LET’S SHOUT AGAIN, GET THE ROSARIES OUT OF OUR OVARIES”
So, we invite you to the March next Thursday, September 28 at 6:30 p.m. in Plaça de Sants and up to Plaça de la Concordia.
