#FemalePressure #awareness & #solidarity for the #Rojava #revolution [#geekgirl]

female-pressure

female:pressure is launching an awareness and solidarity campaign for the canton of #Rojava (located in northern Syria), where women participate on all levels of decision making and building a new society from scratch, with built-in social, racial and ethnic justice, religious freedom, ecological principles and gender equality.

With a series of music, media and sound art to listen, dance and fight to, we would like to send our love and strength to these women and spread a positive message in support of their efforts.

We are calling for participation and submission of works. The work must be related and critically deal with the topic of #Rojava; otherwise there are no restrictions. Everybody is welcome!

Please submit your works via Internet Archive or any other way which can be embedded and distributed online such as Soundcloud, Mixcloud, Tumblr, Vimeo, Youtube, Facebook, Twitter or others.

IMPORTANT: please tag everything with #femalepressure for #rojava #revolution #solidarity

Spread and share the cause.

Send an informal email with the link to your submission to: rojava@femalepressure.net This is how the submissions will be collected by a working team.

The final publication is planned for International Women’s Day on 8 March 2016. Deadline is 15th of January 2016.

female:pressure is looking for Kurdish musicians, sound curators and cultural organisers to collaborate.

Founded in 1998, female:pressure is an international network of over 1,600 female artists from 66 countries in the broader fields of electronic music and arts. http://www.femalepressure.net/
