This Is What Justice Looks Like

Who is W. I. .L. .A and what do they want?

By: --- L.

The following excerpt from my new novel, UNBOWED, http://www.unbowedthenovel.com, is a flier handed out by an Algerian woman to a multicultural audience of women in London. It describes exactly what justice looks like to me, and my story and epilogue offers solutions that ironically mirror this One Billion Rising event. Zafeera would be proud. Who is WILA? What do we want? Our objective is to take out any misogynistic regime that uses violence and intimidation to silence women; To restore the basic dignity and rights of women to pursue education, gain skills, practice a profession, make a living for themselves and their children, marry and divorce freely, and walk in the streets of the world fearlessly, without harassment and without a veil if they choose. We have no religious, political or national affiliation. We are of many religions and no religion. We belong to every nation. We speak many languages, but have One Voice. Our battle will have been won only when women fully share social, economic, political AND religious power in their respective nations and cultures. We invite you to participate in the coming Battle. ..
