Annual Women’s Memorial March

Posted by admin on Jan 10th, 2010

The 19th Annual February 14th Women’s Memorial March takes place on Sunday, February 14 2010 and begins at 12pm. We gather each year to mourn and remember our sisters by listening to their family members, by taking over the streets, and through spiritual ceremonies. At noon, we gather at the Carnegie Community Centre Theatre, 401 Main Street (corner Hastings, Vancouver) where family members speak in remembrance. At 1 pm, the march takes to the streets and proceeds through the Downtown Eastside, with stops to commemorate where women were last seen or found; speeches by community activists at the police station; a healing circle at Oppenheimer Park around 3 pm; and finally a community feast at the Japanese Language Hall.
