Wednesday, March 8, is International Women’s Day, and the organizers of the Women’s March have called for a day of action for equity, justice, and the human rights of women—through collective action, economic solidarity, and a one-day strike.
Here’s the request that has gone out from the Women’s March organizers for “A Day Without a Woman”—with three things women and allies can do:
-Wear RED.
-Women are encouraged, as possible, not to engage in paid or unpaid labor.
-Avoid spending money—with exceptions for small businesses, and businesses owned by women and people of color that support gender, racial, and economic equity.
