Femicide in Granada and Badalona: Not one less
Two new femicide in the Spanish State demonstrate the lack and inefficiency of public policies to eradicate gender violence.
The first victim was 43 and he lived in the town of Guadahortuna, in Granada. She was killed two shots fired by her husband at the door of his house. The second, He lived in the neighborhood of La Salut in Badalona had 40 years and was strangled in her home by her partner.
When little over a month ago thousands returned to win the streets around the State claiming that the Covenant against Gender Violence is met, We denounce the € 200 million were not sufficient to address this problem. Unfortunately the 15 women killed so far this year confirm this reality.
The new president Sánchez, that his assumption was attributed to be a feminist by the number of positions held by women, shows a thread of continuity over the PP. As, concerning gender rights, nothing has changed, nor it has proposed doing. A clear example of this, beyond the grim budget, It is still not considered the deaths of women by the violent chauvinism, as such. He is still talking about murders, when in truth are femicidios. As long as they are not properly captioned murders of women, gender oppression will remain invisible, Thus, We continue to find a gap in justice and the measures applied to eradicate a social problem that ends the life of women.
8M last strike made it clear that women in Spain are part of the new international feminist wave. The force that took to the streets to denounce gender inequality in which we live, reproduced weeks later when we returned to the streets to support the struggle of pensioners. We did also feel when justice ignored the violation exerted by the pack and when they wanted to cut our budget
From Juntas and left and SOL - Spanish State we believe that the way for the claim to be effective #NiUnaMenos, It is the call for immediate action on the streets of Spain to demand urgent measures against gender violence.
