Was sind Feminizide?
Alle Menschen werden in der Gesellschaft in die binäre Geschlechterordnung von “Frau” und “Mann” gewiesen. Morde an Frauen und genderqueeren Personen die aufgrund dieser Geschlechtszuweisung als “Frau” begangen werden, werden als Feminizide bezeichnet. Feminizide geschehen meistens innerhalb der Familie, in häuslichen Einheiten und in anderen zwischenmenschlichen Beziehungen. Diese vermeintlich privaten Umgebungen, in denen Feminizide oftmals stattfinden, lassen die Verantwortung des Staates gegenüber Feminiziden vergessen, denn staatliche Behörden begehen und tolerieren Feminizide. In Medien wird von Familiendramen oder Mord aus Leidenschaft berichtet. Dadurch wir die Systematik hinter den Morden verschleiert und die Motive der Täter banalisiert und verharmlost.
Das muss sich ändern: Feminizide müssen klar als solche benannt werden.

Wer sind wir?
Ni Una Menos Basel ist eine offene Gruppe aus jungen Frauen und genderqueeren Personen, die sich Anfang 2021 zusammengefunden hat. Ihren Ursprung hat die "Ni Una Menos"-Bewegung (deutsch: Nicht eine* weniger) in Argentinien. Die Bewegung entstand 2015 als Reaktion auf einen Feminizid, bei dem ein 14-jähriges schwangeres Mädchen von ihrem Freund ermordet wurde. Seitdem hat sich die Bewegung zuerst in Südamerika und später auf der ganzen Welt ausgebreitet.
Ni Una Menos Basel organisiert nach jedem Feminizid, der in der Schweiz geschehen ist oder in Verbindung zur Schweiz steht, einen Gedenkprotest.
Wir kämpfen gegen das Vergessen, in dem wir denen gedenken, die nicht mehr unter uns sind. Den Verstorbenen versuchen wir eine Stimme zu geben, da sie keine mehr haben. Wir sind da für alle Überlebenden und Hinterbliebenen. Ni Una Menos Basel möchte jedoch nicht nur die Trauer zum Ausdruck bringen, sondern auch die Wut auf das patriarchale System, welches die Täter schützt.
Ni Una Menos, Vivas Nos Queremos!
(Deutsch: Nicht eine* weniger, wir wollen uns lebend)

We are also up to to share our everyday life with many others, build things together, make fires or go swimming in the Rhein.
We have little desire to pay rent, to look only at the next house wall or to adhere to building regulations.
You will find us in the harbour

R.A.B. is an alliance of anti-patriarchal forces of the extra-parliamentary left in Basel. Our focus is on the 25th of November which is the international day against violence towards women and genderqueer people as well as the 8th of march¹.
Every day we experience being suppressed by the patriarchy. In a capitalist system, patriarchal structures lead to the exploitation of women and genderqueer people.
We don't want more gender diversity in the head positions, we want do abolish capitalist systems. Part of that is to overcome gender specific work segmentation, specifically reproduction and care work. We want to overcome the binary gender roles of “men” and “women”. The liberation from patriarchy must go hand in hand with the liberation from imperialism.
In R.A.B. we summon our anger towards daily sexism and transphobia, towards the daily violence that far too often even leads to femicide and murder of trans people. Let us use our differences as strength. Together against the patriarchy!

EPPA offers an alternative for all those who, like us, would like to become less dependent on conventional medicine and the pharmaceutical companies. In dealing with health, we want to give each other the tools to take care of ourselves.

Concretely, there is this space to share knowledge on medicinal plants and medical topics, to get advice and to pick up tea herbs, tinctures or ointments.

Opening hours: jeden ersten Samstag im Monat (14-17:00)

The space is a self-organised meeting place for anyone interested in anti-authoritarian ideas. And for anyone looking for access to knowledge and history that is critical of the existing social order.

We see the writing, distribution and reading of texts – be they theoretical essays, stories or experience reports – as an important part of resistance practice. Our selection of books and brochures includes historical and current content, but is by no means complete or conclusive. In this sense, we want to broaden our perspectives, strengthen analyses and make them accessible through texts and discussions.

In addition to the library service, brochures, zines and flyers are available to borrow and take with you. Or you can drop by for a chat with us. From time to time we organise information and discussion events, as well as readings and film evenings. We are always open to suggestions. You can also find material from us to write letters to prisoners. Our address can also be used for this purpose, and letters received can be collected during opening hours.

We see ourselves as part of the fight against gentrification and displacement in the neighbourhood. Together with the collectively run neighbourhood pub Capri Bar, which is right next door, we form a place beyond the obligation to consume and the logic of profit. We want to create physical moments of community to counter the increasing shift of social life into the isolation of digital space. Let’s fill the magazine with life together!

Opening hours: Montag 16-21h & Freitag 16-20h

The self-organized collectives of Basel, Restaurant Hirscheneck, Eiscafé Acero, Carambolage, Capri-Bar, queerfeminist library Sp!t, SUR3*TU, UG-Kollektiv, Infoladen Magazin, Druckkollektiv Phoenix, Getränkekollektiv, Elsi und Brockenbude Glubos call for financial support to keep our self-created structures alive!

Collective action

Over many years the self-organized groups and venues in this city have built independent structures which are not oriented towards profit increase or prestige of the people who co-organize them, and they enable many to have an income and projects on an equal footing. Organizing as a collective allows us to challenge internal hierarchies again and again and to fill the opening spaces and possibilities with critical content. Helping neighbors and other support work is lived solidarity.

Stay collective

Many of you used and still use these different spaces, as guests or customers, as visitors or friends, to organize politically. Now it is about helping the collectives to get over a difficult time and to prevent these structures from breaking away. In order to support each other as spaces, we hereby start a common fund for collective preservation. Wherever there is an emergency, the collected donations will be used directly and according to the most urgent need and necessity to pay the bills. Together we can keep these places alive for all who use and run them!

INAYA is a Basel-based structure for refugee women and genderqueer people. It wants to show solidarity directly. One priority is a redistribution of needed money from those who have enough to those whom have too little. In this way, basic needs are to be covered securely and in the long term. For refugee women and genderqueer people, existing support structures are non-existent or difficult to access. That is why INAYA!
