Reclaiming the Night in Oxford!

report and videos from 2011 Reclaim the Night march

On Friday 28 October more than 100 women marched through the centre of Oxford raising their voices in song and chants to declare their right to 'walk the streets at night without the fear of rape'. The march was cheerful and passionate, people in the streets were interested in what we had to say, and quite a few women joined the march along the route!

At the rally at Ruskin, men and women gathered to listen to Liz Jones from Oxford City Council spoke about the variety of services available to support women in Oxfordshire (more than there used to be!) and Louise from Oxford rape crisis talked about the amazing work of the organisation - now 30 years old.

You can see some videos of the march at the Oxford Feminist Network website at  http://oxfordfeminist.ox4.org
