FILIPINO WOMEN RISE TO FIGHT FOR OUR LIVES, LIVELIHOOD, AND RIGHTS! GABRIELA USA Statement on Trump’s Presidential Win

We reiterate that genuine change will not come from a politician, but by the power of our mass movement! It is through collective struggle which we’ve been able to continue to fight and make change. We’ve struggled through fascists in the seat of power, we have struggled through the Marcos Sr. dictatorship, the following Philippine puppet Presidents and current U.S.-Marcos II regime while also facing an economic crisis at home and abroad. We have struggled through Trump’s first presidency in the United States and can expect to prepare to collectively fight for pro-women, pro-immigrant, and pro-LGBT+ interests.
