Feminicide and Global Accumulation: Frontlines of a Resilient Movement

Feminicide and Global Accumulation takes us to the forefront of an international movement of Black, Indigenous, popular, and mestiza women's organizations, united in their fight against violence that pervades the global economy and the devalued status of racialized women, trans, and gender non-conforming communities in the Global South. These courageous struggles against racism, capitalism, and patriarchy reveal the profound interconnectedness of land, water, and other resource extraction projects with the devaluation of labor and nature. Moreover, they emphasize the critical role of Black and Indigenous women and trans leadership in resisting these oppressive forces.

The foundation of this book lies in the groundbreaking International Forum on Feminicide among Ethnicized and Racialized Groups, a historic gathering that brought together activists and researchers from diverse countries worldwide. This forum served as a platform for activists to share concrete stories, memories, experiences, and knowledge of their struggles against racism, capitalism, and patriarchy. Participants represented various social movements, fostering a collective understanding of the challenges faced by women, trans, and gender non-conforming communities.

Feminicide and Global Accumulation serves as a powerful reflection of the communitarian and enraged struggles of women, trans, and gender non-conforming communities. These communities are committed to transforming their communities by directly challenging the murder and assassination of women and violence in all its forms. Through their unwavering resilience and determination, they strive to create a world where gender equality, justice, and peace are not mere aspirations but a reality for all.

This book is a testament to the unwavering spirit of these communities and their unwavering commitment to building a more inclusive and equitable world. It serves as a call to action for individuals, organizations, and governments to recognize the importance of addressing feminicide and violence against women and gender non-conforming communities. By working together, we can break the chains of oppression and create a future where every woman, trans, and gender non-conforming person can live with dignity, respect, and safety.
