Queer Strike

Queer Strike, Grassroots, multi-racial, lesbian, bi, trans, queer women’s group campaigning for our economic, legal and human rights; for payment for caring work, taking the money away from military budgets (over one trillion a year) for the essentials of life, and so that women everywhere can afford to make the sexual and other choices we want. We make visible lbtq+ women’s caring and survival work for our families and communities, which is often hidden because we can’t be out.  We are from different backgrounds and ages: single mums, sex workers, with disabilities, housewives, immigrants, students . . . from villages and cities, in Europe and countries of the South. Formerly Lesbian Bi Trans Queer in the Global Women's Strike and before then we were Wages Due Lesbians from 1975. We are part of the international Care Income Now! campaign.
