March 8th - International Day for the struggle of working women
CHILE
The former Concertación, the Communist Party, the Frente Amplio and the union bureaucracies want to bring the combative women's movement to the feet of the UN and the trap of the fraudulent plebiscite, which will leave the Piñera government and the Pinochet generals standing...
Down with the plebiscite scam! Out with Piñera and the whole civil-military regime!
This March 9th, let all of Chile come to a halt!
The working class, with working women at its head,
must put their front line in every mine, port and factory in the country!

Statement from the Coordinadora Feminista 8M:
March 2nd
THIS DESERVES A STRIKE!
Piñera's statement: "It is not only the will of men to abuse, but also the position of women to be abused"
Piñera intends to wash away the image of his criminal government. On the day of the enactment of the Gabriela Law, which broadens the definition of femicide as a result of the long struggle of feminists and families of victims of feminicidal violence, he intends to give the credits for this policy to questioned Minister Plá.
But Piñera cannot prevent misogyny from slipping out of his pores and muddying his attempt at co-option. He brazenly tells us that women have the will to be abused. He believes that sexual abuse is a joke to make his business friends laugh, and tells us that we seek violence.
The fault is not and never has been ours. The fault lies with those who abuse and violate us and with the institutions that protect them. It is the State, the judges, the cops and the President.
Our will is clear. Piñera is about to go out on a General Feminist Strike, in which we will be in the front line against State terrorism and against this criminal and misogynist government.
Piñera: our will is that you leave for good!
