Triunfazo feminist mobilization
The Spanish Supreme Court recognized that the attack of the herd was not rape and abuse. In the year 2016, during the San Fermin festival in Pamplona, Jose Angel Prenda, Antonio Manuel Guerrero, Jesus Escudero, Angel Pozas and Jesus Alfonso Cabezuelo gang-they raped a woman 18 years. Then they bragged about it on social networks.
The High Court of Navarre called it made Herd as sexual abuse, He ruled a sentence of 9 years and left them in bail. It was a shameful decision that sparked a wave of mass demonstrations in the Spanish State and solidarity worldwide. From that moment until today, He claims the women's movement did not stop.
#YoSíTeCreo #NoEsNo were some of the slogans that large sections of the people took as their own. The case settled debates in society What is the role of institutions? Is the victim is blamed? Why are most men who judge women? The role of governments and institutions stood at the center of questions.
The failure rape was imposed on the streets, only judges were forced to "hammer down" to the enormous pressure of the struggle and the international impact.
It was a tough fight, but he won. The recent Supreme Court ruling: He established the crime of "Aggravated rape of humiliating treatment", raising penalties 15 years and compensation to the victim 100.000 euros. For one of the attackers increased by two years for robbery with intimidation mobile. The judges determined that there was a "Authentic intimidating scenario" that the victim did adopt an attitude of "Subjugation". The judgment is final.
It was a great triumph of feminist mobilization because it was recognized that there was violation. Yes went unpunished, it would have meant almost an institutional free hand to violate with lesser penalties. The courageous decision of the victim to move on, the strength of women and the global feminist wave the white stuff put on black.
Pedro Sanchez and defenders of the regime are already taking advantage of the failure to mention a "Restore the credibility of Justice" and vindicate the Supreme Court. We do not share this. They were right women singing “This sucks Justice”. The failure rape was imposed on the streets, only judges were forced to "Hammer down" to the enormous pressure of the struggle and the international impact.
#YoSíTeCreo #NoEsNo were some of the slogans that large sections of the people took as their own.
Reclaiming serves. Serves not keep his mouth shut. Make strikes and demonstrations serves. Rely on the strength of feminism serves. Take an independent path of institutions serving. organize serves. These are the main conclusions, not wash her face that They are part of the problem.
We are now in a better position to go for the conquest of more rights. These days it came to a sad number: 1.000 women murdered since recordkeeping officially takes. The death of women by virtue of being is extremely serious, many continue to deny. First, justice itself that does not define the killings as they really are: femicidios. It is an immediate task curb gender violence and killings that result from it. We continue screaming #NiUnaMenos, Enough femicidios.
Patriarchal machismo is widespread in society and institutions, capitalism imposes oppression and exploitation of women. Parties like the PP, Citizens and VOX fachos support this unjust state of affairs. It is seen that the arm can twist them, but to defeat them you have to take deep steps.
…we are proud to be contemporary of millions of brave women, as our sister was a victim, but he did not give up despite the pain.
First, we will continue betting on the mobilization, Yes play a, play all. We do not wait "miracles" institutions that take the feminist claim to channel them into an impasse of confidence in the authorities and formal measures.
It is necessary that judges are not dependent on power shift, but they are elected by popular vote, with juries that have most women. Education at all levels must be forged with a gender perspective. Institutions ensure containment of battered women with specific psychological and economic measures to overcome the conflicting situation.
We are proud to be contemporary of millions of brave women, as our sister was a victim, but he did not give up despite the pain. Also for having been part of the claims made in Madrid, Barcelona, Murcia and in different countries is organized Boards and to the left as part of the International Socialist League.
Let's move on with our class feminism, seeking unity with workers and oppressed minorities. The fight continues until capitalism and patriarchy fall together.
