Female Blackout Day

Female Blackout Day. Hierbei handelt es sich um eine Solidaritätsaktion mit und von Frauen, die Opfer häuslicher Gewalt und Missbrauch wurden. Damit soll gezeigt werden, wie es aussieht, wenn Frauenbilder für 24 Stunden verschwinden.

Folgende Nachricht kursiert derzeit verstärkt in sozialen Netzwerken:

„Female blackout from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Its a movement to show what the world might be like without women. Your profile photo should just be a black square so that men wonder where the women are. Pass it only to women … It’s for a project against domestic abuse. It is no joke. Share it.“

Sehr viele Nutzer*innen beteiligen sich an dieser Aktion und tauschen ihr Profilbild für 24 Stunden gegen ein komplett schwarzes Bild aus:

• A day without Women. “A Day Without Women” was actually a strike that was held on March 8, 2017 on the annually celebrated International Women’s Day which commemorates the international women’s rights movement of the 19th century later known as the feminist movement or the women’s liberation movement. These organizations are the voice of issues such as: sexual harassment, sexual violence, reproductive rights, maternity leave, equal pay and domestic violence. A Day Without Women in the US really had nothing to do with any of these issues of feminism, but instead was a direct attack on the President of the United States for the policies that I mentioned earlier. A Day Without Women encouraged women to stand together in rebellion of the leadership of the United States of America. Quelle: Christianity Every Day
