A massive demonstration has travelled the streets of Vitoria-Gasteiz to denounce the murder of a 37-year-old woman in the Vitorian district of Sansomendi. The man committed suicide after killing with a knife his partner, who was in separation, when his two children, minors, were at home.
Remember the woman murdered by Erika Tavares and not Sexist Aggressions! Feminist self-defense! Under the motto “Feministak Kalera”, hundreds of people have joined the mobilization following the call of the feminist movement. The movement has expressed its "indignation and disgust" over this already fifth Machista murder in Euskal Herria.
We feel anger, anger and nausea. And in the face of this, we only have more struggle, more struggle and more struggle.
Remembering Erika Tavares, let us continue to organize FEMINIST SELF-DEFENSE.
