HCMC – One Billion Rising Saigon

Mc Sorley’s
4 Thao Dien, An Phu, Dist 2, HCMC

From the organizer:

Women, and believers in equality, come and dance and be empowered. This movement is about equality for women all around the world, freedom of expression, and togetherness. We are hosting this event on 8TH MARCH which is national Woman’s Day in Vietnam. On this day and through this movement, we hope to inspire and unite women, and victims of violence through a positive medium. Please feel free to invite all of the women, and people who love them, that you know.

ONE BILLION RISING FOR JUSTICE is a global call to women survivors of violence and those who love them to gather safely in community outside places where they are entitled to justice – courthouses, police stations, government offices, school administration buildings, work places, sites of environmental injustice, military courts, embassies, places of worship, homes, or simply public gathering places where women deserve to feel safe but too often do not. It is a call to survivors to break the silence and release their stories – politically, spiritually, outrageously – through art, dance, marches, ritual, song, spoken word, testimonies and whatever way feels right.

Free entry.
