A REPORT OF THE WOMEN SCREAM 2020 HELD ON THE 21st OF MARCH 2020 AT THE PREMISES OF NATIONAL COMMISSION FOR MUSEUM AND MONUMENTS IN ABA, ABIA STATE, NIGERIA UNDER THE THEME : WHO IS SCREAMING FOR YOU.

The International Poetry and Arts Festival "Woman Scream" was traditionally held for the fifth time, in Macedonia City Spojie, last Saturday 28th of march 2020. The festival is a worldwide chain of events held in March where poets and poets, artists and organizations from various countries volunteer to honor women's rights and send messages of self-confidence, respect and empowerment against violence against women. Every year the festival has its motto, and this year the international motto of the festival is "Who's screaming for you, to honor orphan children victims of femicides"

Until last year, the festival was continuously organized in more than 70 countries around the world, with more than 900 successful co-coordinated events, but this year Macedonia is the only country in the world to continue the tradition and hold the event, as other countries have canceled their events due to a pandemic. The national coordinators of the festival organization in Macedonia, the poets Olivera Docevska and Elena Prendzova, with the support of the organization Justice, have decided to hold the festival online this year.

- We have decided to take advantage of the benefits of computers and the Internet, as it is the modern information and technical capabilities that make the festival more accessible to both participants and audiences. That's why we decided this year to invite artists from all kinds of arts around the world. They presented their work through videos, which were posted on YouTube. The link was posted to social media on March 28 at 12 noon. Since then, the link has always been available to the public - said Prendzova.

According to her, "The Woman Scream" is a festival that aims to raise awareness of the fight against violence against women and women's rights, so, in the context of it, the motto of our national festival has always been "20 days after March 8 and let's do it. "

"That's why I want to remind you that women - mothers, daughters, sisters, daughters-in-law - are the ones who most often take care of sick and close family members and are often forced to put others' needs ahead of their own." In such cases the health of all stakeholders is always affected. In the name of the common good and health of the human race, I call for conscientiousness in following the procedures and following the recommendations so that everyone can have their lives back to normal very soon - says Prendzova.

This year's the participants were: the world-wide festival general coordinator Jael Uribe, from the Dominican Republic, and mexican singer Adolfina Nava with the Grito de Mujer song of the festival. Also the participation of the performer Simmer Savo, poetess Pina Tucci and songwriter Angelo Torquia from Italy; poet Kui Chien Li of Taiwan; bachelor and actress Bailey Casle of the United States; poetess Tonya Pasola of Catalonia, Spain, and poet Gustavo Vega Mansilla of Spain; the poet Christian Kozel from Slovenia; performer and poetess Lucila Trapaco from Switzerland and poet Dashamir Malo from Albania, and the participants from Macedonia are: the performing duo Miki Janevski and Simona Atanasovska, the poet Marina Ikonomova Jokeva, the artist Pooja Echoi, the poet Miro Mojo , poetess Danica Ivanovska Lepojevic, artist and graphic designer Vlado Fidanoski, watercolorist and artist Simonida Filipova Kitanovska, musician Martin Cvetkovski aka DJ Orb, fashion designer Sarah Redzic and artist Vincic.

WOMAN SCREAM 2020 ACCRA

On 15th March 2020, the Accra Woman Scream 2020 program began with some music and slowly the participants arrived.  There were two very active young girls under the age of 15 who were very excited to perform and spoke well on the theme. They were Vicentia Amaburu and Thomasina Chea who had more than one poem to perform.  A  participant, Jean Chantal Ayanga, spoke of the difficulty and struggles of being a single mother and how she overcame the challenges and negative attitude given to women in her situation.   

We also had Abena Antwi, Desmond Achaempong, Mawuli Selormey and Isaac Obeng and myself, Mariska Araba Taylor-Darko as some of the performers.  

Attendance was good, despite recent worldwide events but we took all the sanitary measures possible. We had more music and played some poetry recorded by professional poets to add to the ambience.  

All participants received their certificates and the owners of the venue, Mr. and Mrs Caspar Selormey gave the use of the  venue for free as their contribution to the event. 

Two volunteers, Raymond Dzandu and Kwame Fosu assisted in the event. Two FM Radio stations (Stephen Arman of Peace FM and Mr. Nii Okpoti Odamtten of Amanie FM covered the event and interviewed me.  

All look forward to next year!

For the third time, Norwegina Author's Union helped organize a Norwegian version of the Woman Scream festival, a literature festival focusing on freedom of expression and women.

 
VICTORIA BØ

In March each year the Woman Scream festival is organized. This is a worldwide network of events focusing on freedom of expression. This year, Woman Scream 2020 takes place in 31 countries, including Norway. Woman Scream was founded by poet and human rights advocate Jael Uribe ten years ago in her hometown of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Uribe won DnF's Freedom of Expression Award for 2016 and came to Norway to receive the award the following year. The meeting with Uribe and the stories she brought with her about freedom of speech struggles led DnF to organize a Norwegian version of Woman Scream in the third year in collaboration with the Norwegian Literature Festival and Lillehammer Literature House.



 

Literature and freedom of speech.

In Norway, the festival was held in Lillehammer on March 3, the same day as in Peru, Mexico, Argentina, Columbia and the Dominican Republic. The authors Magnhild Bruheim, Linda Gabrielsen, Åse Ombustvedt and Marie Haavik participated in readings and in panel discussions. The evening was led by Marit Borkenhagen, leader of the Norwegian Literature Festival.

Since its inception in 2011, Uribe and local writers and artists in various countries have ensured that Woman Scream has been organized in more than 70 countries and with more than 900 different markings. This year's festival theme is "Who is crying for you?" and there are voices shouting on behalf of children who are in demand. The international version of the festival has its own focus on children who have become motherless due to violence and murder.

The focus of the Norwegian festival was: How are children's voices expressed in the literature? Can literature help strengthen the vulnerable and vulnerable and change something for us readers?

 
The child as a size in the world.

"I've always been concerned about children as a size in the world," said Linda Gabrielsen, who is current in the book Entré. She met case writer Marie Haavik for a panel discussion led by Hallfrid Velure. In 2016 Marie Haavik published the book One which is good. To have a child with Down syndrome. Haavik and Gabrielsen in their books in different ways give voice to the experience of having children with Down.

Youth book author Åse Ombustvedt, in conversation with Magnhild Bruheim, told how a trip to the store became the inspiration for the book How Old I Must Be Before I Can Shoot My Dad, a poem book for youth that deals with domestic violence, among other things.

"If the book can help some of the silent kids dare start talking, then that would be very nice," she said.

For tredje gang var DnF med på å arrangere en norsk versjon av Woman Scream festivalen, en litteraturfestival med fokus på ytringsfrihet og kvinner.

VICTORIA BØ 

I mars hvert år arrangeres Woman Scream festivalen. Dette er et verdensomspennende nettverk av arrangementer som har fokus på ytringsfrihet. I år foregår Woman Scream i 31 land, deriblant Norge. Woman Scream ble grunnlagt av poeten og menneskerettighetsforkjemperen Jael Uribe for ti år siden i hennes hjemby Santo Domingo i Den dominikanske republikk. Uribe vant DnFs Ytringsfrihetspris for 2016 og kom til Norge for å motta prisen året etter. Møtet med Uribe og fortellingene hun hadde med seg om ytringsfrihetskamp førte til at DnF på tredje året arrangerer en norsk versjon av Woman Scream i samarbeid med Norsk Litteraturfestival og Lillehammer Litteraturhus.

Litteratur og ytringsfrihet. 

I Norge ble festivalen arrangert på Lillehammer 3 mars, samme dag som i Peru, Mexico, Argentina, Columbia og Den dominikanske republikk. Forfatterne Magnhild Bruheim, Linda Gabrielsen, Åse Ombustvedt og Marie Haavik deltok med opplesinger og i panelsamtaler. Kvelden ble ledet av Marit Borkenhagen, leder for Norsk Litteraturfestival.

Siden oppstarten i 2011 har Uribe og lokale forfattere og kunstnere i ulike land sørget for at Woman Scream blitt arrangert i mer enn 70 land og med mer 900 ulike markeringer. Årets festival tema er «Hvem roper for deg?» og det er stemmer som roper på vegne av barn som etterspørres. Den internasjonale versjonen av festivalen har et eget fokus på barn som har blitt morløse pga vold og drap.

Fokuset for den norske festivalen var: Hvordan kommer barnas stemmer til uttrykk i litteraturen? Kan litteratur bidra til å styrke de utsatte og sårbare og endre noe for oss lesere?

Barnet som en størrelse i verden. 

– Jeg har alltid vært opptatt av barn som en størrelse i verden, sa Linda Gabrielsen som er bokaktuell med romanen Entré. Hun møtte sakprosaforfatter Marie Haavik til panelsamtale ledet av Hallfrid Velure. Marie Haavik ga i 2016 ut boka En som er god. Å få et barn med Downs syndrom. Haavik og Gabrielsen gir i sine bøker på ulik måte stemme til opplevelsen av å få barn med Down.

Ungdomsbokforfatter Åse Ombustvedt fortalte i samtale med Magnhild Bruheim hvordan en tur på butikken ble inspirasjonen til boken Hvor gammel må jeg være før jeg kan skyte faren min, en diktbok for ungdom som blant annet handler om vold i nære relasjoner.

– Hvis boken kan bidra til at noen av de tause barna tør begynne å snakke, så ville det være veldig fint, sa hun.
