Around 100 mothers, joined by men and children marched from Trafalgar Square to Parliament Square in recognition and support of all the work that mothers contribute to society. London, United Kingdom, 13/03/2010.
Organised by the All African Women’s Group Mothers’ Campaign (MoCa), Global Women’s Strike (GWS) and Single Mothers’ Self-Defence the march assembled a Trafalgar Square at 2pm. The women wanted to highlight the fact that, “The survival of the human race depends on the caring work of mothers. But we get no recognition or support. Only blame when things go wrong. And we’re even expected to do more work to feed the family, often on the lowest pay.”
After marching down Whitehall to Parliament Square, the demonstrators gathered on the field where they listened to a few speakers and handed out leaflets to passers by.
