BRITANNIA RULES THE WAVES, CYBERSPACE, OCCUPIED IRELAND WITH CENSORSHIP AND TORT

On John Bull's other Oisland, otherwoise known as Occupied Oireland and " the oirish free stout?" all sorts of nonsensical reasons are given to protect the innocent Oirish people, from the international media by the paedophile enabling sub-ruling class. Oindymedia Ireland are the only collective that censors my lovers articles worldwide(go check for yourself and I mean ALL other Indymedia worldwide). Maybe its that auld thing of man or a woman can never be a prophetess in its own land. Joyce would be still censored Ireland or maybe not in this era of west Brit dominance and revision on John Bull's other Island. I told one of my clients not to give up hope on the place that one day he will be uncensored like Joyce. Anyway he gave me a job as a part-time skivvy and aked me to get his manuscripts published in Oireland, so here ye are this is the link and for Jaysus sake, Indy media don't ban him again or he will take ye to the European court of Human rights!

Mothers Protest Family Separation, De-Valuing of Caring Work

On Saturday, March 13, mothers and those who depend on them held simultaneous protests in ten cities around the world in honor of the 100th anniversary of International Women's Day. Called by the Global Women’s Strike, the events united under the call to “Invest in Caring, Not Killing,” beginning with payment for the first carers: mothers. Marchers also demanded resources for family reunification and protested the mistreatment of undocumented domestic laborers.

In Guyana, coastal women of African, Indian and Mixed descent travelled to the interior to join with their Indigenous sisters demanding clean potable water, electricity, housing, money for carers, protective rape law, and an end to racial and domestic violence. This historic unity was front page news in the national papers.

In India, Tribal and Dalit women from rural Chhattisgard assembled to demand equal rights to land and property; ration cards for mothers below the poverty line; higher pensions for single, widowed and divorced women; and compensation for mothers and children released from bonded labour.

In Los Angeles, about 150 people led by women and Aztec dancers marched to the Department of Children and Family Services to protest children being unjustly taken from their mothers because of racism, poverty and other discrimination. A similar protest was held in Philadelphia — due to heavy rains the group gathered inside the Arch Street United Methodist Church to dialogue and view a preview of the documentary, “DHS: Give Us Back Our Children!” produced in cooperation with the Scribe Video Center Community Visions Project.

Events also took place in Haiti, Mexico, Peru, Turkey and Venezuela, as well as in the Strike headquarters in London.

The Strike began working to revive International Women's Day in 2000. Their webpage explains: "We all know that the survival of the human race depends on the caring work of mothers. Mothers have the longest working day and the lowest incomes. On top of caring we’re expected to work for the lowest pay to feed our families. We get no recognition or support, only blame when things go wrong. And in times of wars or even ‘peace’, mothers are to the most dedicated campaigners for justice for our loved ones – an extension of our caring work."
