Women's Fightback 31, Spring/Summer 2024. The thread running through this edition of Women's Fightback is the state, and its capacity to coerce, oppress and harm. The prison system is a rough place at the best of times. But for pregnant women it is a living nightmare, and for newborns it can be deadly. Criminalisation is threatening our reproductive rights like never before. In Israel, state repression is unleashed on opponents of atrocities being committed in Gaza and teenagers refusing to serve in the military. In response to these attacks, we discuss abolitionism, and explore the debate over how the left engages with public sector workers who are, willingly or not, a part of the state machine. We also bring you reports of the fight against sexism in the trade union movement; a story of anti-racist organising in the 1980s; reviews of feminist films and art exhibitions; and plenty of international reports and analysis from Belarus, Sudan, Ireland, Iran and more. Beyond that, you will find a wealth of cultural criticism; an exhibition on feminist revolt; tales of Unwell Women and Genoa’s trans outcasts of the 1960s; dispatches from Mexico’s struggle for abortion rights and the fight for democracy in Hong Kong; feminist dissidents in Belarus, and much more. We hope you enjoy it! Article list: No Births Behind Bars The socialist case for abolition Soft cops or class fighters? #meTU Sexism in the unions Who's afraid of gender? Ireland's lost referenda A labour of love Taking on the racists — the legendary Sari Squad Poetry: Poke your woke A new chance for abortion liberalisation in Germany? Decriminalise abortion now! Belarusian dissidents face prison Refusing to serve Letters from prison In defence of Standing Together How do you solve a problem like Iranian women? The case of Sepideh Qolian War in Sudan one year on Acts of resistance With Women, We Exist Women's Fightback is a socialist feminist magazine by Workers' Liberty. We stand for trans-inclusive, sex-positive, class struggle feminism. We organise in our workplaces and trade unions, and in the student movement and Labour Party for socialist feminist politics.
