The Feminist Fightback organisers would like to invite
you to an open planning meeting to get your input on
the coming conference. Agenda items will include
feedback on proposed ideas for conference panels and
discussion of any new ideas; a brainstorming session
on future Fightback campaigns, particularly pro-choice
activism; and organising for publicity and funding.
Back for a second year, the Feminist Fightback
activist conference will take place on Saturday 20th
October 2007 at the University of East London.
Fightback is organised by a group of socialist
feminists from the Education Not for Sale network. It
aims to bring together feminists from a wide range of
perspectives to debate ideas and develop practical
strategies for fighting sexism and exploitation.
Fightback 07 will build on the success of last years
conference, attended by over 220 people, which gave
rise to several activist initiatives, including the
Torch-Lit March for Abortion Rights that took place in
March 2007. This year will continue our campaign to
defend and extend abortion rights and will also
include workshops on eco-feminism, sex trafficking and
migration, women workers, feminism and pornography and
much, much more.
Feminist Fightback is supported by the National Union
of Students Womens Campaign.

The meeting will take place on Thursday 6th September
at 7pm at the Lucas Arms on Grays Inn Road, London. If
you are coming from outside London we can arrange for
a fare pool or a donation towards travel. Please

All who define as women are welcome to come along,
give us your ideas and get involved. Fightback is
organised by an autonomous women-only steering
committee bit welcomes the support of men.
