Description

Feminist Question Time with speakers from US, UK and Spain

Women's Declaration International (WDI) Feminist Question Time is our weekly online webinars. It is attended by a global feminist and activist audience of between 200-300. The main focus is how gender ideology is harming the rights of women and girls. You can see recordings of previous panels on our YouTube Channel. WDI is the leading  global organisation defending women’s sex-based rights against the threats posed by gender identity ideology. There is more information on the website womensdeclaration.com where you will find our Declaration on Women’s Sex-based rights, which has been signed by more 30,000 people from 157 countries and is supported by 418 organisations.

Ananda Castano - Spain
Organising lesbian feminism in Spain: obstacles and progress - I will talk about the problems we face as lesbians in the feminist community, the threats and invasions transactivism supposes and some projects we have started in order to overcome all this. Erasure, ostracism and hostility towards lesbians are still a not-aknowledged issue in almost every domain of a lesbian's life. This is even more overt in the case of lesbian feminism. For lesbians to be able to organise ourselves, we must adress this issue and develop strategies to confront it. In Spain we have started several projects which seek to bring lesbian feminist consciousness back for lesbians and for every woman.  We have created an independent radical feminist press, consciousness-rising groups, international and national activist groups and local feminist groups with a strong lesbian feminist pressence. We have created spaces for the spread and discussion of lesbian feminism.  We have been writting, bonding and creating.

Bio: Lesbian feminist activist from Spain. 29 years old woman with disabilities and chronic illnesses, lesbian separatist writer and poet. Currently working on the radical feminist press, Labrys Editorial. Member of RadFem Sevilla, and lesbian feminists groups like (Re)acción lésbica, Lesbianas de la Munda and the consciousness-rising group Reflexión Lésbica.


Disclaimer: Women’s Declaration International (WDI) hosts a range of women from all over the world on Feminist Question Time (FQT) and Radical Feminist Perspectives (RFP) and on webinars hosted by country chapters – all have signed our Declaration or have known histories of feminist activism - but beyond that, we do not know their exact views or activism. WDI does not know in detail what they will say on webinars. The views expressed by speakers in these videos are not necessarily those of WDI and we do not necessarily support views or actions that speakers have expressed or engaged in at other times. As well as the position stated in our Declaration on Women’s Sex-based Rights, WDI opposes sexism, racism and anti-semitism.
