Empire, Islam & the Politics of ‘Saving Women’: Teach in

FREE TICKETS: SIGN UP HERE

This teach-in session explores how narratives of women’s liberation are repeatedly mobilised to justify imperial war, sanctions and occupation, particularly in Muslim-majority contexts.

 Together we will unpack the concept of imperial feminism: how the language of rights, protection and “saving women” has been used historically and in the present to legitimise violence against our communities. Through collective learning and discussion, we will examine the relationship between empire, Islamophobia and the instrumentalisation of colonial-feminism.

 Part of the MSJI School of Community Power: our programme for collective study and organising practice.

**For young people aged 18-35**
