In Kassel takes place on Saturday, the 11. March, like every year at this time, the meeting of Christian life protection groups (TCLG) instead of. Important personalities of the so-called “life protection” scene, who are networked through churches and clubs and into party politics, come together here, to exchange ideas about their strategies and goals. One of their biggest concerns has always been the complete ban on abortion. According to their self-description, it is about protecting life, but the limits, which life should be protected here, become clear upon closer inspection. They do not advocate comprehensive health care for pregnant women in refugee accommodation, They do not campaign against violence against trans or black people and they do not support family planning for queer people, for whom it is still very complicated, even in Germany, to adopt or to be registered as parents on the birth certificates of their non-biological children.
We demand the abolition of the paragraph 218 from the criminal code, to which pro-life activists cling desperately. This is an important step, but it's not nearly enough. We need social justice: a world, where all people have access to resources and support, that you need, about children under conditions of their own choosing, to be raised in a safe environment and free from state violence – or not! We fight for the sexual and reproductive self-determination of Black people and people of color, of those living in poverty, from queers, disabled, migrant and refugee people, from trans, inter and non-binary people.
With these demands and struggles we follow the inventors of and fighters for the concept of reproductive justice, which was largely developed by black feminists in the USA.
Because of this: Come with us on Saturday 14 Clock to Opera Square, where we want to oppose the so-called pro-life activists and stand up for reproductive and sexual justice!
Afterwards there is Küfa! <3
