International Solidarity

This poster, and a smaller notecard, were produced and sold to raise funds to help pay costs of the 1971 IndoChinese Women’s Conference sponsored by women's liberation groups in Vancouver, including costs for the venue, food, billeting delegates, and transportation of the delegates within Canada.

This subsection contains material on solidarity in the feminist movement with women’s struggles for justice and freedom internationally. Activists in Canada – including immigrant women in the diaspora – forged networks of solidarity with women in South Africa, Philippines, Nicaragua, Palestine, Ireland, El Salvador, Vietnam, and beyond. The actions and campaigns they coordinated made links between colonial and imperial violence at home and abroad, and highlighted the Canadian state’s complicity.

The Simon Nkoli Anti-Apartheid Committee (SNAAC) was formed in Toronto in the mid-80s. The SNAAC was active on anti-apartheid work within the LGBT community in Toronto and on anti-homophobia organizing within the anti-apartheid movement. Nkoli was a South African gay anti-apartheid activist, working with the Congress of South African Students (COSAS) and with the United Democratic Front. In 1984, he was arrested as one of the Delmas 22 when South African police attempted to crush ongoing protests against rent hikes. In 1983, Nkoli joined the Gay Association of South Africa, which was predominantly white and later formed the Saturday Group, the first black gay group in Africa.

The Toronto-based South African Women's Day Committee organized a rally on August 9 1986 to mark the 30th anniversary of South African Women's Day. On that date in 1956, 20,000 women of all races from across South Africa came together and marched to Pretoria to protest the issuing of the passbook to African women. It was one of the most memorable demonstrations in the history of the South African fight against apartheid. The 1986 commemoration also recognized the contributions, courage and determination of South African women over years of struggle for a just society. Solidarity with the women of South Africa was also part of the Toronto 1986 International Women's Day theme "Women Say No to Racism".

Button in support of the Republican women imprisoned in Armagh who protested alongside male Republican prisoners during the Northern Ireland conflict. In 1980, the women took part in a “No Wash” protest after being beaten by riot squads following a commemoration held for a an woman active in the struggle who was killed. Later, a number joined the 1980 Hunger Strike. The brutal treatment of the women prisoners and barbaric prison conditions generated support and solidarity from many feminists, including backing for the demand for political status.

This button was produced by the Canadian government to mark 1975 as International Women's Year, so designated by the United Nations. The UN began marking March 8th as International Women's Day the same year. It also designated the decade from 1975-1985 as the Decade for Women. A world conference held in 1975 in Mexico established a set of goals to advance women's rights over these ten years. In 1985, the World Conference to Review and Appraise the Achievements of the UN Decade for Women convened in Nairobi.

Women in Black is a women's anti-war movement with an estimated 10,000 activists around the world. The first group was formed by Israeli women in Jerusalem in 1988, following the outbreak of the First Intifada. It began as a vigil held every Friday in central Jerusalem, where women would wear black in mourning for all victims of the conflict and hold signs protesting the occupation of Palestinian land.The initiative soon spread to various other locations in Israel, with women standing weekly in main squares of cities. The movement soon spread to many European and North American cities.
