Moviment Graffitti took to the streets on Women’s Day in a march titled “March for Collective Liberation,” bringing together women, non-binary individuals, trans people, and allies in a united front against oppression and injustice.

This march was designed to commemorate Women’s Day, highlighting the ongoing struggle for gender equality and acknowledging the substantial work that still lies ahead. Participants seized this opportunity to voice their determination to continue fighting for equitable treatment across all genders, emphasising the significance of recognising and addressing the nuances of this battle.

During the march, the women present articulated a vision that mere improvements, advocating for profound and widespread changes in the societal structures and relationships that we live on a day to day basis. They stressed that while recent progress and small steps forward are important, the ultimate goal is to achieve a radical transformation in the way gender is perceived and integrated within the fabric of society.

It was also underscored that the freedoms currently enjoyed are a direct result of the tireless efforts and bravery of countless women who, throughout history, have risked everything to challenge the status quo and fight for the rights of future generations. This march served not only as a reminder of the long journey ahead but also as a tribute to the legacy of those who have paved the way for today’s advancements in gender equality.

The political couple made up of Labour MP Randolph Debattista and MEP Cyrus Engerer were also present at the demonstration, with a recent social media post showing the two taking a selfie holding a Women, Life, Freedom placard whilst also writing “even if alone, we’ll march on and on”.
