Topless Parade In Paris

Topless protesters from Femen paraded against fascism in Paris over the weekend. They wore military caps, and bore the flags of the United States and Russia, often with a swastika painted over top their chests.

The Femen activists delivered “sig Heils” to their opponents — Elon Musk, U.S. President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Marine Le Pen, leader of the French conservative party.

The demonstrations coincided with International Women’s Day. We’re not sure how cold it was, but the protesters certainly had frosty faces! Here’s more from The Real Raw News.

Topless Jihad Launched

Amina Tyler, a Tunisian activist, has inspired the Ukrainian feminist group, FEMEN, to jump-start a new Arab Spring for women’s rights. Tyler caused controversy after posting photos of feminist slogans written across her naked chest, hoping to raise awareness of the deteriorating situation of women’s rights in the Middle East. A Muslim preacher demanded the teenager be stoned, calling her an “epidemic.” Because of Tyler’s demonstration, FEMEN has declared April 4 a day of “relentless topless jihad against Islamism.”

Our Bosoms for Freedom
