India’s oldest Socialist Weekly!
Editor: Dr. G.G. Parikh | Associate Editor: Neeraj Jain | Managing Editor: Guddi
German socialist Clara Zetkin founded International Women’s Day to acknowledge working women’s contribution to the struggle against capitalism. It’s no wonder that Clara Zetkin’s legacy has been erased by the corporate sponsorship of #IWD.
The lesson of every struggle against oppression has been that relying upon an elite few to obtain powerful positions has never won fundamental change for the vast majority of people; they have only been won when ordinary people have united to challenge the elite and the divisive system.
On International Women’s Day, Katherine Connelly looks at its origins in the socialist and feminist movements led by working class women.
