As the women's collective from the Northwest region here in Brazil, and since the meeting in Abya Yala, we know that our struggle is one! We join the struggle of the women of Rojava, we reaffirm that it is our natural right to fight in defense of life, in defense of our bodies, and in defense of our territories. The struggle of the women of Rojava is also the struggle of the women of Abya Yala; it is also the struggle of all women who are in their territories, in the peripheries, fighting for the right to life for themselves, their children, and future generations. Therefore, we reaffirm that it is a natural right for women to fight for their territories and for their bodies. We are all in solidarity with the women of Rojava!
We are all YPJ

Women Defend Rojava:
NEW Background article on the integration talks regarding the continued existence of the YPJ and the situation of women in Syria and Rojava

💬 Based on the online-talk with YPJ Commander Newroz Ahmed and Emîne Osê, member of the Kongra Star diplomacy committee

🔴 The continued existence of the YPJ is at stake; if it is not integrated, it cannot exist.

🔴 Only the organized participation of women in the army can break its patriarchal and Islamist mentality.

🔴 The government's patriarchal and Islamist mentality is already evident: violence against women is increasing in Syria, especially against Druze, Alawite, and Kurdish women.

🔴 If the YPJ is not accepted, the achievements of the women's movement as a whole will not be accepted.

🔴 The YPJ is currently defending a model for the future of Syria in which women and various religious and ethnic groups have rights, can express themselves freely, and participate in shaping the future.
