Women in Black - for justice, against war

Fellow women, you are cordially invited to a Women in Black anti-war commemoration vigil on Saturday 3rd December at 6pm in Cork city.

As a group of women we will gather at the Peace Garden on South Mall at the junction of Grand Parade in Cork to remember and reflect on the injustice of past and present wars and conflicts. We will also stand in solidarity against any further attempts by governments to engage in future war and conflicts.

PLEASE WEAR BLACK.

Women in Black is a world-wide network of women committed to peace with justice and actively opposed to injustice, war, miiltarism and other forms of violence. As women experiencing these things in different ways in different regions of the world, we support each other's movements and bear witness. An important focus is challenging the militarist policies of our governments.  We are not an organisation, but an organic grassroots means of communicating and a formula for action.

Ray: 085 8370692

May I take this opportunity to respond.   I understand your concern but in the first instance  I want to highlight that my stance against war includes me  also being an anti-imperalist  as I have joined the dots between imperalism and war. For the record I have highlighted British injustice too.    For instance the arms fair in London.  The war against Iraq etc etc.  This event was to commemorate globally all  people who have died and  have been effected by war and conflicts.  Yes men suffer too by war as you rightly state and especially so by the socialisation that maleness includes masculine traits such as aggression and violence which enable men to be soldiers.  It is with regret that I don't have a photo of the event to show that we had placards detailing innumerable  conflicts such as Iraq, Afghanistan, Rwanda, Congo, Hiroshima etc etc.  and at the garden there is the commeration to Hiroshima and Nagaski.    Nowadays we face a neo-liberal colonalisation and currently we have to look at the dark clouds gathering  towards Iran and we need to look and learn because at the end of the day elites create the war and men die, women cry, women die and men cry and Women in Black attempts albeit in a small way by using black as a form of the symbolisation  of mourning  to bear witness to death, disintegration and destruction.  It is my opinion that  divisions between us 'the people' the people who make up the 99% is a means which creates the opportunity for further injustice.

I do thank you for your comment though and do wish you all the best.

Ray NicFhionnlaigh.

the 'garden' you are referring to on the south mall is in fact not  a peace garden but a monument to imperialism
celebrating the deaths of ordinary working people on the battlefields of europe for the british murder machine.
it is a disgrace that it is still standing.

'As women experiencing these things in different ways in different regions of the world'
woman are not the only ones suffering in the world,why not engage in something practical and a little less vague why not support republicans outside the british embassy on saturday coming, prisoners in maghaberry  are resisting
torture,beatings, strip searches everyday
