Erinyen Zine

Location

Germany

Although anarchism is, in theory, inherently feminist, the reality is often quite different. Erinyen was created out of a need to bring issues of dominance, alienation, lack of control and masked hierarchy more into the anarchist sphere as well as for creating a place to share information, struggles and ideas. We hope with this platform and the magazine we contribute to more solidarity, understanding and change on all levels, regardless of gender, sex, age, ethnicity ... and so on.

This webzine exists to help encourage a new sense of community among UK feminists, and to show the doubters that feminism still exists here, today, now - and is as relevant to the lives of the younger generation as it was to those in the 60s and 70s. The webzine was founded by, and is mainly written by younger feminists, those of us born during or after the feminism of the 60s and 70s. Although we encourage contributions from feminists of all ages, we are particularly keen to encourage and showcase the new voices of younger feminists, our peers. To this end, contributions from new writers of all ages, and young women and girls are particularly welcomed and encouraged.

Callout for LoveKills Festival #4 (Camp in Romania)

Teaser Image: 

LoveKills Collective intends to bring about the fourth edition of LoveKills Festival in the summer of 2009. We will organize again the anarcha-feminist gathering, but this time we would like to organize it as a one week camp. The camp will take place in the mountains (west of Romania, Socolari village) between 27 july - 02 august 2009. Our experience with the previous editions and the impact they had, above all in the local context, conferred us not only with the motivation but also with the strength to keep on organizing such an event.

Statement:

We are a recently formed group of women interested in visual aspects of the Womens Struggle. We want to combat images of the "model woman" which are used by capitalist ideology to keep women from disputing their secondary status or questioning their role in a male dominated society.
