Shaheen Bagh Solidarity at London’s Million Women Rise March

As the anti-CAA protests continue across the country—despite the violence the national capital witnessed in February—on the eve of International Women’s Day, protesters in London marched in solidarity with the women-lead movement at Shaheen Bagh. The protesters were part of the Million Women Rise March. A press statement released in this regard said, “The Shaheen Bagh bloc at the demonstration highlighted the iconic nature of the women’s occupation in Delhi which has been going on since 14 December and has inspired hundreds of other Shaheen Baghs all over India. The protests sites have become spaces of safety and creativity where women are putting forward an alternative vision of the future in which all kinds of oppression can be challenged.”
