Women Were on Streets Against Exculpation Efforts of Male Violence
Women were on streets in many cities, against state’s exculpation efforts of male violence and femicides with the pretext of withdrawal from Istanbul Convention. Our comrades from “Anarşist Kadınlar” (Anarchist Women) have attended the protest with their banners “Solidarity Keeps One Alive”, “Women Won’t Forgive Violence”, “Long Live Woman Solidarity” writen on. In Istanbul, on behalf of Anarşist Kadınlar (Anarchist Women) our comrade Şeyma Çopur has made a speech. Şeyma Çopur’s speech is as follows;
“From where I look, I see thousands of women who are determined to acquire their life,and I know millions of women is living with this crowd’s power even if they are not here at the moment. From where I look, I see a group of police standing behind thousands of women and the first thing comes my mind is this; where were those police who are ready to attack us in any situation when a women exposed to violence and slaughtered? They were not present. Those polices attacked women in İzmir while not preventing femicides. We are gathered here because we won’t give up on our lifes.This is a promise every women gave to themselves. State says “it breaks family integrity and legitimates(!) homosexuality, we are withdrawing from Istanbul Convention”. We women, wheter state withdraws from it or not, won’t forgive male violence, femicides and men which steal our life never and ever! We lived with our solidarity and will live with our solidarity!”
