What is ONE BILLION RISING?

1 in 3 women across the planet will be beaten or raped during her lifetime. That’s ONE BILLION WOMEN AND GIRLS. Every February, we rise – in countries across the world – to show our local communities and the world what one billion looks like and shine a light on the rampant impunity and injustice that survivors most often face. We rise through dance to express joy and community and celebrate the fact that we have not been defeated by this violence. We rise to show we are determined to create a new kind of consciousness – one where violence will be resisted until it is unthinkable.

About One Billion Rising

One Billion Rising is the biggest mass action to end violence against women (cisgender, transgender, and those who hold fluid identities that are subject to gender-based violence) in human history. The campaign, which launched on Valentine’s Day 2012, began as a call to action based on the staggering statistic that 1 in 3 women on the planet will be beaten or raped during her lifetime. With the world population at 7 billion, this adds up to more than ONE BILLION WOMEN AND GIRLS.

2013: People across the world came together to express their outrage, to strike, dance, and RISE in defiance of the injustices women suffer, demanding an end at last to violence against women.

2014: One Billion Rising for Justice focused on the issue of justice for all survivors of gender violence, and highlighted the impunity that lives at the intersection of poverty, racism, war, the plunder of the environment, capitalism, imperialism, and patriarchy. For the third year of the campaign, One Billion Rising’s global coordinators chose the theme of “Revolution” as an escalation of the demand for justice, and to build upon the massive efforts of communities worldwide that also looked at the roots and causes of violence as part of their call for justice.

2015: Millions of activists in over 200 countries gathered to Rise for REVOLUTION, to change the paradigm, demand accountability, justice and systematic CHANGE. We are rising to show we are determined to create a new kind of consciousness – one where violence will be resisted until it is unthinkable.

2016: The theme of Revolution continues with a call to focus on marginalized women and to bring national and international focus to their issues; to bring in new artistic energy; to amplify Revolution as a call for system change to end violence against women and girls; to call on people to rise for others, and not just for ourselves.

2017: The call escalated to Rising in Solidarity against the exploitation of women and girls. In so many regions of the world, women are abused in multiple ways across layers of exploitation and oppression. One layer is the deeply entrenched patriarchal structures in society that continue to subordinate and oppress women, and conditions or forces women into submission and subjugation. This creates fertile ground for domination and control over them. Another layer is the exportation of poor women for labor when economic exploitation is globally enforced by imperialist and capitalist states that place profit over people. The abuse of the planet, and the commodification and dehumanization of women’s bodies in the service of profit, and in the service of other nations’ profit and development, is the most criminal act of abuse and power. This is especially so when the exploitation is being done to the most marginalized women – indigenous women, transgender women, migrant women, domestic workers, undocumented women, the urban poor and peasant women. The 2017 Rising was a demand to end ALL forms of exploitation of women and girls.

2018: The theme of SOLIDARITY remained the focus of One Billion Rising 2018, with the call to “Rise, Resist, Unite!” As we came into a time defined by a fierce escalation of fascist, imperialist, neo-liberal attacks on the lives of people around the world, the OBR call to “Rise, Resist and Unite” became more resounding. And the most marginalized – working class, minority and women on the margins in every part of the globe – who experience the impact and are forced to confront these attacks on their welfare and rights and homes, once again led the risings. Joining the emergence of other anti-women, anti-people leaders and governments around the world, we saw mass OBR global risings with other social movements as well as deep and ongoing engagements creating a vigorous solidarity and dynamic energy to a rising resistance everywhere. This included the advocacy of women’s rights, the protection and defense of indigenous lands and the rights of indigenous peoples, rising against fascism and tyranny, discrimination and racism, environmental plunder and destruction, corporate greed, economic violence, poverty, state brutality and repression, war and militarism.

2019 introduced “RISING: From a Campaign to a Way of Life” and the OBR Manifesta.

As we continued to Rise to end violence against women – it was imperative now for us to expand our understanding of women’s oppression and exploitation in the context of capitalism, colonization, racism, imperialism, environmental plunder and war. We have been compartmentalized and divided for too long. Our Rising must now connect our specific oppression to the common universal humanity that binds us all. This is no less than a way of life, a way of seeing, a way of being in the world. It is not one day that we rise, but every day that this consciousness must rise in all we do.

We call on you to be braver, go deeper, reflect, study, listen, learn, awaken to what you don’t know, ask the difficult questions, engage, take actions, and push yourselves out of your comfort zones physically and intellectually. We call on you to commit to resistance and solidarity.

Because Rising is no longer a campaign – it is a way of life.

2020: RAISE THE VIBRATION. RISE FOR REVOLUTION.

We are in the midst of a rising tide of right-wing nationalism, white supremacy, fascism, tyranny, hatred of and fear of immigrants, misogyny, femicide, homophobia, transphobia, corporate greed and climate destruction. We cannot beat fascists, rapists, climate deniers and plunderers on their terms. We will never be that cruel, discompassionate, greedy, or murderous. We cannot let ourselves be changed by or sunk in their cynicism, hatred, divisions and destruction. What we can do is remember we are the many and we can raise the vibration through action, art, connection, imagination and love.

2021: RISING GARDENS are a defiant creative call for revival, restoration and transformation. They are, in many ways, a compassionate call for justice – because one of the greatest injustices of our time has been the destruction and eradication of Mother Earth, parallel to the ongoing and escalating gender-based violence. We cannot keep the ongoing extraction of women’s labour and earth’s produce, with no gratitude to both. We must honor and protect the Earth and women in order for any future life to exist.

2022: RISE FOR THE BODIES OF ALL WOMEN, GIRLS & THE EARTH

RISE for the Bodies of All Women, Girls & the Earth, created by the ONE BILLION RISING coordinators. Our 2022 call is to connect both in a deeper, more purposeful, political, transformative and yet also empowering, hopeful way. And to make this coming year a truly radical, bold, fearless escalation of artistic risings. We are experiencing the devastating consequences of the ongoing vicious systems of patriarchy, imperialism, capitalism and racism on the world today. We see this destructive battle for power fought over women’s bodies and the body of the earth. The devastation cannot be ignored. This past year has seen global lockdowns, government neglect, health crises, proliferation of authoritarian regimes, endemic exploitation of labor, escalating corporate greed, worsening poverty, racism and exclusion, the grave ongoing destruction and pillaging of the environment for capital, as well as the deterioration of the climate. At the core of all of this is the injurious hold of patriarchy and misogyny ––on women’s rights and freedom. We have seen more rapes, more domestic violence, more abuse, more exploitation, more trafficking, more hunger and death, more political persecution, more restrictions on freedom and mobility, more forced migration, more femicide, more loss of reproductive rights, and more and more violence. The violence of discrimination, of exclusion, of poverty, of inequality, of occupation, of exploitation, of suppression, of displacement, of oppression, of control has been severe and unrelenting.

THIS IS AN ARTISTIC UPRISING: We call on the world to hold Artistic Risings for the bodies of all women and for the ‘ultimate body’- our earth. Using the body as your call. Using the body as your resistance. We call on the world to use ART. Dance. Visual art. Physical and immersive theatre. Film. Sculpture. Painting. Sports. Performances (Live and Recorded). Photography and digital art. To reclaim, express, defy, disrupt, unite, radicalize, awaken, revolutionise, and to create JOY, HOPE and TRANSFORMATION.

2Lei in Virtual Worlds 2021 - 12° Edizione/ 12th Edition

 

 

"IO TI NEGO…"

 


In molti  paesi la donna ancora non viene considerata come una persona, non le viene riconosciuta la sua individualità, non le vengono riconosciuti molti diritti se non tutti, alcuni dei quali per noi sono considerati normali in quanto già acquisiti, almeno sulla carta. Ancora in molti luoghi del mondo le donne sono ritenute delle proprietà, degli esseri inferiori. Ancora oggi in tutti i paesi progrediti o meno,  in tutto il mondo ci sono lotte, ci sono battaglie da vincere per affermare il proprio diritto:

alla Libertà;

alla Parola;

all’Istruzione;

al Lavoro;

al Voto;

all’Indipendenza;

alla Tutela Giuridica;

alla Libertà Sessuale;

alla Tutela Sanitaria;

e sicuramente, in questo elenco abbiamo tralasciato qualcosa, ma già così la lista pare la trama di un film di fantascienza.

Incredibile vero?


Donne e uomini dovrebbero avere uguali diritti nel rispetto della propria individualità, ma sappiamo benissimo che non è così. 

Sì, vero di passi avanti ne sono stati fatti, eppure, di fronte a un tema fondamentale e significativo come quello dei diritti di ogni essere umano, l’uguaglianza che dovrebbe essere assicurata, purtroppo, ancora oggi non c’è.

Purtroppo siamo ancora molto lontano dal superare lo scoglio delle diversità, il Gender Gap è un dato di fatto.


Nonostante la lotta delle suffragette per l’emancipazione femminile nata per ottenere il diritto di voto per le donne. Nonostante durante  la  prima della guerra mondiale le donne abbiano compiuto azioni normalmente deputate agli uomini dove la società finalmente sembrava  riconoscesse il loro valore, l’equità dei diritti, ahimè, con l'evolversi dei tempi, anziché progredire, ci si è arenati,  han dovuto, quindi, rimboccarsi le maniche e continuare la lotta, urlando invece di parlare, per difendere le loro ragioni.

Urlare per affermare che loro sono!

Quindi cosa è successo?


Come mai invece di andare avanti la società è tornata indietro?


Badate bene che non si confonda tutto questo come una battaglia contro l’uomo, inteso come essere umano ma contro la società. Una società che fondamentalmente non riconosce i diritti basilari, sia verso l’essere umano Uomo che l’essere umano Donna.  Una battaglia verso le Istituzioni molto spesso latenti, verso quella Società Civile che trova più semplice e facile volgere lo sguardo dall’altra parte.


"IO TI NEGO" … E NON VOGLIAMO URLARLO!!!

 "IO TI NEGO…"



In many countries women are still not considered as persons, their individuality is not recognized, many rights are not recognized, if not all, some of which are considered normal for us because they are already acquired, at least on paper. Still in many places in the world women are considered property, inferior beings. Even today in all countries, whether advanced or not, all over the world there are struggles, there are battles to be won to assert one's right:

to Freedom;
to the Word;
to Education;
to Work;
to Vote;
to Independence;
to Legal Protection;
to Sexual Freedom;
to Health Protection;

and surely, in this list we have left out something, but already now the list is looking like the plot of a science fiction movie.

Unbelievable, isn't it?


Women and men should have equal rights in respect of their individuality, but we know very well that it is not so.

Yes, it's true that progresses have been made, but, in front of a fundamental and significant issue, such as the rights of every human being, the equality that should be ensured, unfortunately, still does not exist.

Unfortunately, we are still a long way from overcoming the obstacle of diversity, the Gender Gap is a fact.


Despite the struggle of the suffragettes for women's emancipation born to obtain the right to vote for women. Despite the fact that during the first world war women have performed actions normally assigned to men, where society finally seemed to recognize their value, the fairness of rights, alas, with the evolution of time, instead of progress, we are stranded, they had, therefore, roll up their sleeves and continue the fight, screaming instead of talking, to defend their reasons.
Screaming to affirm that they exist!
So what happened?


Why is it, that instead of moving forward, society has turned back?

Take care not to confuse all this as a battle against men, intended as a human being, but against society. A society that basically does not recognize the basic rights, both towards the human being Man and the human being Woman. A battle against the Institutions that are often latent, against that Civil Society that finds it simpler and easier to look the other way.

"I DENY YOU" ... AND WE DO NOT WANT TO SHOUT!
