The @_AfricanUnion claims it wants to eradicate violence against women, yet it cannot even properly define femicide. The AFC proposes a different definition. Let’s talk about it ⬇️

African women, girls, and gender-minorised people are facing mass violence across our continent. In 2025, the @AfricanUnion adopted, a convention on Ending Violence Against Women and Girls We studied it. It won’t end violence against Women and Girls. 🧵

Nous sommes la continuité d’une lignée politique forgée par des féministes révolutionnaires noires et africaines qui nous ont précédé·es.

On Friday, 21 November 2025, South African women will silence the nation. We call on all women and members of the LGBTQI+ community across South Africa to refrain from all paid and unpaid work in workplaces, universities, homes, and communities to demonstrate the economic and social impact of their absence. Because until South Africa stops burying a woman every 2.5 hours, the G20 cannot speak of growth and progress. We demand that Gender-Based Violence and Femicide be declared a National Disaster. Not tomorrow. Not at another summit. Now! Join the G20 Women’s Shutdown. Withdraw Your Power on 21 November. Spread the message across South Africa and beyond. Let’s show the world the power of women. #WomenForChange #WomenShutdown #UnburyTheTruth #G20

Grateful to not only have written this, but to be able to read it out loud to my daughter, Jez. The tears and the tight hug that followed made me realise that they do understand…so, tell them! Hope this blesses another parent and daughter. #IDG2025 #InternationalGirlsDay

What a fearless & profound testament of feminism! The realness in Awa’s analyses is palpable! Each part added a new layer that probed me to look at the reality of feminism in Africa through her upbringing & praxis! Féminist education is life-long! #AfriFem

Dans sa réflexion sur la situation en Gambie, @TheJamaJack rappelle que les #MGF sont une forme de violence patriarcale que les filles et les femmes subissent et doivent être adressées comme telle. ✊🏾 Lisez l’article : 👉🏿 bit.ly/3TpDYHQ #EndFGM #EndFGM220 #Eyala

You're not a feminist just because you believe in equal rights. Feminism is about TAKING ACTION, challenging patriarchy & working COLLECTIVELY for real, lasting change 🙌🏾. We are happy to share this powerful #FeministQuote inspired by @F_Moudouthe, CEO of @awdf01 and founder of @EyalaBlog.

Oui @EyalaBlog, nous y avons déjà pensé😃🤗 Ce qui nous motive c'est d'informer sur les mouvements féministes africains et d'amplifier le travail essentiel des féministes africaines. Notre devise féministe c'est "l'information pour les droits des femmes et filles africaines"
Eyala (@EyalaBlog) profile pictureEyala@EyalaBlog19 Aug 2024
Et vous, quelle est votre devise féministe ? Avez-vous déjà pensé à cela ? 🤔 Qu’est-ce qui vous anime, vous guide ou qui est important pour vous en tant que féministe ? 😊 Partagez vos réponses avec nous. 😉 Bon lundi et bonne semaine à toustes 💚🌸 #Eyala #AfriFemInspo

When @F_Moudouthe explained the difference between economic empowerment and economic justice so well. Economic empowerment requires women to perform within a patriarchal system while economic justice employs a feminist approach.
