How is the rise of reactionary masculinities helping to sustain fascism and patriarchy? What can we do about it?

In this session we’ll examine the material realities of women’s struggle and why it's essential we build a women’s movement on the left.

We’ll look at the importance of anti-imperialist feminisms and why feminist revolution is at the heart of the global fight against fascism.
