In this day of action on our first thoughts turn to the Eguavoen Jennifer, a young woman in the house and knifed dead in the street, in Calderai, in the heart of this ancient city fierce.
Jennifer was Nigerian, he had no documents, the State was branded as "illegal" and not even know exactly how old he was. The story of Jennifer
is similar to that of many, too many women hurt and killed by the violence of patriarchy. To all of them we dedicate our love and our militants.
This country lives one of the darkest periods of recent history. The inadequacy of the ruling class has revealed its root causes and grotesque in a scene of incredible squalor. The nerve center are the private ones, and vice versa. The spectacle of politics and politics are one of the show, and is visible to everyone.
The body of women is for sale. It is a commodification functional to the achievement of success, power, fame. The sexual favor, the sale of bodies, the surrender to the whims of the powerful are all structural elements of a system steeped in machismo, and justified by the very women who seek power and power living.
It is therefore not only a problem of the trivialization of human sexuality and relationships. Nor is the classic prostitution. What is revealed, with each passing day, is the inhumanity of power as such. A vision of existence which unites all men and women, the desire to overpower the other and empty them of dignity, reducing them to domain objects. Today
to feel insulted not only women. Every day we all feel insulted.
We feel offended by the brutality of this system based on exploitation of all being, the precarious situation, the lack of rights, on economic inequality, racism, discrimination, on moralizing clerical oppression, violence of patriarchy, the commodification of bodies and feelings, on the mystification of values, alienation of social relations.

more time to defend not only their dignity. It is time to revolt against the power, all of them together, to regain freedom.
