Feminism was a movement at one point in time. It is an ideology now. It was a movement to unite women together. This movement was seeking equality and equal status for women and men. In order to possess opportunity and autonomy feminism was empowered. The power and beauty of feminism were into equality. As radical feminism came into light, the real meaning and power of feminism have lost.

PRESS RELEASE & REPORT
The Joint Committee on Gender Equality has today, Thursday December 15th, published its final report entitled Unfinished Democracy: Achieving Gender Equality.
This report is based on the work carried out by the Oireachtas Committee over 2022.
Chaired by Ivana Bacik TD, the cross-party Committee held a range of hearings to consider the comprehensive recommendations produced by the Citizens’ Assembly on Gender Equality.
The Committee took the view that the 45 Assembly recommendations should be seen as a blueprint for achieving a gender equal Ireland, and so the focus of its deliberations was on how best to secure their implementation.
In particular, the Committee has developed a precise wording of the text for amending Articles 40.1 and 41 of the Constitution, and it calls on the Government to hold the necessary referendum in 2023.
The proposed changes to Article 40.1 would reflect the Assembly’s wish to see constitutional recognition for the principle of gender equality; and for principles of equality and non-discrimination.
The proposed changes to Article 41 would remove the sexist language currently in the text referring exclusively to women and mothers as having a ‘life’ and ‘duties’ within the home.
Instead, the proposed changes would insert gender-neutral language to ensure that the role of care is recognised, valued and supported by the State.
The proposed changes would also ensure a more inclusive definition of ‘family’ beyond the family based upon marriage.
Apart from constitutional change, the report also sets out comprehensive recommendations on a range of other gender equality measures; on childcare, care and social protection; on measures to address Domestic, Sexual and Gender Based Violence (DSGBV); on the role that education can play in challenging gendered norms and stereotypes; on the impact of pay and workplace conditions on gender equality; on how to achieve gender equality in leadership, politics and public life; and on how the gender equality principle can be protected through law and policy.
Speaking at the launch of the report, Committee Cathaoirleach Deputy Ivana Bacik expressed thanks to all who had engaged with the work of the Committee, saying:
“The aim of this report is to provide an action plan for change towards a truly gender equal Ireland, with meaningful timelines for implementation.
“We acknowledge that the implementation of some Assembly recommendations is already underway, and we now call on the Government to ensure the timely implementation of all of our recommended actions.
“In particular, we want to see a referendum held in 2023 to give effect to Assembly recommendations 1-3 on constitutional change; and we call on the Government to begin the preparatory work necessary for the holding of such a referendum.”
“We look forward to the implementation of our recommendations, and to the achievement of a truly gender equal society. As the Assembly has stated, ‘gender equality is a matter of human rights, justice, and fairness. It must underpin all of our interactions as a society."
“Until gender equality is achieved, our democracy will remain unfinished.”
Some of the key recommendations for government action in the report:
• Hold a constitutional referendum in 2023 to give effect to the Citizens’ Assembly recommendations on constitutional change, on the basis of the wording proposed by the Committee.
• Commission a 'cost of care' review that calculates the financial cost of unpaid care and examines the societal value of unpaid care.
• Move from a model of privatised care provision towards a publicly funded, accessible and regulated model of quality, affordable early years education and childcare.
• Ensure that the State takes over full responsibility for the remuneration of employees in the early years and childcare sector.
• Develop and establish a National Planning Unit for Care, to foster better linkages and co-ordination on care policies across all relevant Government Departments.
• Establish a Statutory Child Maintenance Agency to keep child maintenance out of the courts where possible.
• Ensure that action on the Third National Strategy on DSGBV begins immediately, pending the establishment of the new Statutory National Agency.
• Reinstate the Irish Sentencing Information System and ensure improved data systems within the criminal justice system to provide visibility on sentencing levels in DSGBV cases.
• Mandate the Electoral Commission to review A national gender quota strategy every five years.
• Initiate a process towards the introduction of a universal pension system.
• Institute a more generalised pilot Universal Basic Income (UBI) scheme based on the ‘participation income’ approach.

Animal Equality veröffentlicht schockierendes Bildmaterial aus Vorzeigehöfen der deutschen Eierindustrie. Einige dieser Betriebe werden von verschiedenen Siegeln ausgezeichnet. Aktuelle Filmaufnahmen aus zwei Biobetrieben und zwei Betrieben, die Hennen in Boden- und Freilandhaltung halten, decken die traurige Realität von Hühnern in alternativen Haltungsformen auf.
Das sind die schockierenden Ergebnisse der Recherche:
• die Tiere leiden unter extremer Enge und Stress
• kranke, verletzte und sterbende Hühner
• verweste Kadaver zwischen noch lebenden Artgenossen
• ausgepickte Federkleider bei einem Großteil der Hennen
• mangelhafte Hygiene, blutige Geschwüre, Eileiterentzündungen und andere Verletzungen
Die Bilder belegen eindeutig, dass Legehennen auch in Vorzeigebetrieben mit alternativen Haltungsformen, einschließlich verschiedener Biosiegel, an ihrer Gefangenhaltung leiden. Lebende und fühlende Individuen zu Produktionsmaschinen zu degradieren, kann nur zu Lasten der Tiere geschehen. Wir können problemlos Eier und Eiprodukte durch tierfreundliche Alternativen ersetzen und das Leiden und den Tod von Millionen leidensfähigen Individuen pro Jahr vermeiden.
Jetzt das Ei-Versprechen geben und sich für Hühner stark machen: www.animalequality.de/eiversprechen

Mit einer bewegenden Aktion vor dem Brandenburger Tor machten 100 Aktivistinnen und Aktivisten von Animal Equality auf die tragischen Folgen der heutigen Tiernutzung aufmerksam. Jeder Einzelne hielt ein Tier in den Händen, welches als Folge der Nutztierhaltung gestorben war. Die Aktivisten machten auf diese Weise das Leiden von Tieren in unserer Gesellschaft sichtbar und setzten sich gleichzeitig für mehr Mitgefühl und Gerechtigkeit für alle Tiere ein.
Die 100 toten Tiere, darunter Lämmer, Küken, Ferkel und Hühner, standen stellvertretend für alle getöteten Tiere durch den Menschen, vor allem durch den Konsum tierischer Produkte. Die Tiere sind in Mastanlagen, Tierversuchslaboren oder anderen Orten der industrialisierten Tiernutzung während ihrer Haltung gestorben und entsorgt worden.
Zahlreiche Menschen blieben stehen und verfolgten sichtbar bewegt die Aktion. Unsere Botschaft wurde somit an unzählige Passanten weitergetragen. Verschiedene Pressevertreter waren vor Ort, um über die Aktion zu berichten und die Leiden der Tiere öffentlich zu thematisieren.

MLK Mall & "Balance of Equality"
1993
On December 8, 1983 NIU's governing board approved Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Commons as the name for the area where this memorial sculpture and sculptor Peter Fagan's life-size bust of MLK (1993) resides. Nardi's sculpture "Balance of Equality" (1991) is based on the Reverend King's "Christmas Sermon on Peace" and engraved are two quotes from the speech on the base of the sculpture. The brick and concrete walkways and landscaping were completed in 1992.

Igualdad Animal ha sacado hoy a la luz imágenes de una granja de cría de patos en el estado de Brandeburgo en Alemania, poco antes de Navidad, para dar a conocer el terrible maltrato animal que sufren.
La investigación, que ha sido publicada hoy en primicia en el importante medio alemán Spiegel, muestra a trabajadores golpeando a patos hasta la muerte con horquetas, ensartando a los animales estando aún vivos y animales vivos arrojados a contenedores.
Según información obtenida del año 2013, la granja alemana suministraba aproximadamente un millón de patos al año a Wiesenhof. Igualdad Animal ha denunciado a esta granja.
Según las Estadísticas del Bundesamt, cada año casi 25 millones de patos son matados en Alemania, la comida preferida de Navidad. Aproximadamente, el 60 % de las ventas se realizan en estas fechas.
