International Women’s Day march dedicated to victims of male violence
Million Women Rise call out state failures to tackle misogyny and racism in society
BLACK women will lead a march through London today to remember the victims of male violence and call out state failures to tackle the crises of misogyny and racism in society.
Thousands are expected to join the Million Women Rise march, held annually on March 4 ahead of International Women’s Day, from Oxford Street to Trafalgar Square.
The only-women event, which began in 2007, calls for an end to the individual and “institutionalised” male violence against women worldwide.
