THE FRENCH FEDERATION OF THE INTERNATIONAL MASONIC ORDER HUAN RIGHT PAYS A TRIBUTE TO GISELE HALIMI The French Federation of the International Mixed Masonic Order HUMAN RIGHT, has released a hommage to Giele Halimi, which is the following. « It is with great sadness that we learn of the death of Maitre Gisèle Halimi. Freemasons often dream with nostalgia about the great social advances of the Third Republic. Gisèle Halimi showed them that the fight for equality of women and men are always of the greatest topicality: in a long interview given to the newspaper Le Monde in September 2019, she was still surprised that "the injustices done to women do not cause a general revolt".-------------------------------------- Her first feminist struggles were for her own emancipation, a strike of hunger at 12 so as not to serve her brothers, then at 16 the refusal of a arranged marriage. Faithful to his native land, Tunisia, for whose independence she took up the cause, she kept her nationality after independence. Militant against torture and colonialism, she signed the "Manifesto of 121" and took part in the defense of Djamila Boupacha, tortured and raped in prison. In 1971, she signed the "Manifesto des 343", for the right to abortion and founded the same year, with Simone de Beauvoir, the movement "Choose the cause of women “. In 1972 his defense at the famous Bobigny trial for a young woman having had an abortion after a rape, and the release she gets for it, will constitute a big step forward that will allow Simone Veil to pass the abortion law. In 1978 by defending two raped young women, she helped to make advance the law which in 1980 will finally recognize rape in France as a crime and not no longer a misdemeanor. Her courageous fight and his works against torture, for Human Rights and the cause of women, the advances to which it has contributed, are part of the lineage of those who contributed to the progress of Humanity. On this occasion the French Federation of the International Mixed Masonic Order HUMAN LAW reaffirms its commitment to the defense of universalism, Human rights and full equality between men and women. » Source: The French Federation of the International Mixed Masonic Order HUMAN RIGHT
