Ten ways to reflect on feminist self-defense

  • November 25 is the day to go out into the street against male violence. The feminist movement in Euskal Herria has quoted, Feminist justice in fear and control! under the motto (19:00 hours in Bilbao, Donostia and Gasteiz, 20:00 hours in Pamplona and 17:00 hours in Baiona). Itaia will also perform concentrations in different locations. Because these oppressions are fought every day, here are ten proposals for interviews and reports that ARGIA has published and that can be read calmly, if today is not tomorrow or the past. We have focused on the responses from feminist self-defense.

A philosophy of violence.

 

The body is attacked, but it also responds from the body to the aggressor or to pain. One path can be tattooing. The Desideratum tattoo studio in Barcelona witnesses hard personal stories. Altruism and empathy come together to offer free tattoos to women who have experienced male violence or have suffered cancer to overcome traumatic situations. Leire Regadas interview tattoo artist Noemi García:

 

Amaia Lekunberri Jaiak fights for pleasure in the report on the response to assaults during parties:

 

The COVID-19 forced return order accentuated home hell to many of the women's aggressors, because the house is not systematically synonymous with tenderness and/or protection. On behalf of the couple, Saioa Baleztena spoke to feminist lawyer Carla Vall about women who suffer violence:

 

Stitxu Eizagirre reflected on Lantoki in the face of aggression. In the letter:

 

The issue of aggressions is a topic to be addressed in centers from a feminist perspective. Among other things, relationships between partners and the Escalator of Violence tool are being identified and worked on. Mikel García tells us in the report “The staircase that highlights the toxic relationships of the couple”:

 

From the shadow or currently, both in the private sphere and in the center of the plaza, responses are being given against patriarchal and sexist aggressions throughout the world.
