The Justa Revolta collective and the Sabadell Popular Movement led a demonstration this Sunday, March 8th, in Sabadell to demand women's rights and social justice.

The march started at Plaça d'Espanya and moved through Eix Macià towards Plaça de les Dones del Tèxtil. Participants highlighted the connection between feminism and the defense of public education, healthcare, and labor rights.

"8M is every day because there is so much inequality and danger that it is necessary. We are going backwards."

The rise of the far-right was a major concern for attendees like Júlia Membrives and Aïda Guidus, who emphasized the importance of education for younger generations. The protest also called for a boycott of Israel and expressed solidarity with Palestine.
