WOMEN’S RESISTANCE AND STRUGGLE WAS MAKING MARCH 8 SIGNIFICANT
In the statement, which said, “All the values created from history to the present are the result of great costs, resistance and solidarity,” the statement said, “It was the resistance and struggle of women that created and made 8 March meaningful. From history to the present, women have always been in a stance and resistance against the male-dominated order. It is this historical resistance of women that makes humanity hopeful and ensures the cycle of life. The stance of women, which stands against all kinds of exploitation and envisions freedom for all humanity, has left its mark on the entire history.
The following issues were also included in the statement of the KCK Executive Council Co-presidency:
“Exploitation relations have started to enter the history of humanity with the domination of the male-dominated mind over women with the methods of cheating, deception and conspiracy. It is possible to see this fact concretely from history. In fact, the written and oral history of the male-dominated process tells how women were dominated and how the exploitation system was established. This reality can be resolved and understood by a history reading freed from the male-dominated view. The dominant approach to women has also brought about the domination and exploitation of the whole society and life. The desire to dominate and exploit women, which is the basis for the development of life and sociality, has resulted in such a result. As the domination and exploitation approach towards women increases, the exploitation of society, The relations of domination and slavery also deepened. This is another fact that history shows us.
Another important truth that the history of humanity shows us is that with the beginning of domination and exploitation, resistance and struggle also started and have continued until today. In addition to being the first gender, class and nation to be dominated and exploited, women have also been the gender, class and nation that developed the first resistance attitude. Women’s resistance to domination and exploitation has been the main subject of all epics, folk songs, mythology and art, and has left its mark on history despite the efforts of the male-dominated system to hide and distort. This resistance of women, which expresses the freedom of society and nature, became the source of all resistances that developed and became widespread later on. Today, women’s leadership in protecting sociality against domination and exploitation and in the liberation of life proves this historical reality.
The capitalist system of modernity is a system that most targets sociality and deepens exploitation. In this respect, it is the most advanced form of the male-dominated system. The fact that the capitalist system attacks women and women’s nature so much is because of its anti-social character. Since women’s life expresses partnership and sociality, this male-dominated system develops multidimensional attacks against women in order to destroy all these feelings and to end sociality completely. The patriarchal culture, imposed by capitalist modernity on women’s nature, tries to hide the fact of misogyny by covering up oppression, exploitation and massacre with a false perception of freedom. This situation, which is a great distortion, reflects the fact of cheating, deception and conspiracy of the male-dominated mind. Let alone capitalist modernity, being libertarian means being the most exploitative and enslaving system. March 8 revealed this fact of capitalist modernity in its simplest form. March 8 has shown us that overcoming the male-dominated mind and order will only happen with the destruction of the capitalist system. Today, women’s raising their resistance in line with this consciousness and their rejection and overcoming the capitalist system, which is the most developed male-dominated system, is the only way and struggle that will liberate life, sociality and humanity.
LEADER APO DEFINED THE REVOLUTION HE LEADED AS THE WOMEN’S REVOLUTION
Leader Apo rejected all modern and traditional approaches and tried to understand women’s nature and live right with women. This approach and effort of Leader Apo has deepened him in women’s freedom. Leader Apo believed that the emancipation of society can only be achieved with the freedom of women and that life can be made meaningful in this way, therefore he put forth a great effort for women to become a will and gain self-consciousness. So much so that Leader Apo defined his work and the revolution he pioneered as the women’s revolution, basing his paradigm on women’s freedom and revealing his approach to women. This approach of Leader Apo determined the character of the Kurdistan revolution and enabled the Kurdistan revolution to develop along a women’s liberation line. Leader Apo promotes the women’s libertarian paradigm not only for Kurdish women, but also for developed for all women. For this reason, women all over the world are interested in Leader Apo’s ideas, are in an active struggle to ensure their physical freedom, and embrace Leader Apo. Leader Apo has become the target of the forces of capitalist modernity because he rejects all kinds of male-dominated approaches and life, seeks and struggles for a new life based on women’s freedom. Therefore, it is very meaningful for women to take the lead in embracing Leader Apo. We express and congratulate the meaningful efforts of the women, who see Leader Apo’s freedom as their own and embrace it, as very valuable. is in an active struggle to ensure his physical freedom and embraces Leader Apo.

Our movement, on the basis of this paradigm put forward by Leader Apo, is fighting in a libertarian line and believes that a free and meaningful life is in the liberation of women. Today, women, whose consciousness, will and organization have developed, have reached a level that leads humanity’s struggle for liberation. The most concrete example of this is women’s leadership in the struggle for freedom, equality and democracy of the whole society in Rojhilatê Kurdistan and Iran. Now everywhere, society gathers around women and sees freedom in women’s freedom. Today, women leading social struggles show that we are very close to freedom. We believe that the woman who gains will, organizes and raises her struggle will make life free; it will abolish the exploitative order, she.
As it is known, a major earthquake occurred in Kurdistan on February 6, 2023. While the Turkish state and the fascist AKP-MHP government left the peoples to die, a very meaningful example of social solidarity and support led by women was exhibited. This example of solidarity has shown once again what a great potential women and peoples have, and that they have the power to establish their own and free lives and administrations.
With this March 8, it is very important for women to be in solidarity with earthquake zones and to raise them by leading social solidarity. Again, more than ever, he sees and greets that they are in a struggle against the male-dominated system, fascism and all its versions. Once again, we celebrate March 8, International Working Women’s Day to all women of the world, and on this occasion, we salute the resistance and struggle of the woman walking for freedom with the slogan of Jin Jîyan Azadi.”
