Behind every conflict-ridden border, there is a scream that the world can no longer ignore. 🌍💔

Today, we raise our voices for the most silent and heartbreaking crisis of our time: the plight of migrant women and girls in war and conflict zones.

They are not only fleeing bombs; they are fleeing a double danger. Along the paths of displacement, women’s bodies become extensions of the battlefield. They face gender-based violence as an invisible toll, absolute legal defenselessness when crossing borders, and overcrowding in shelters where basic safety is a luxury.

According to global data, nearly 83% of human trafficking victims along these routes are women and girls. Behind this statistic, there are no mere numbers, there are lives, names, and shattered dreams. When borders close or systems fail, their human rights are left suspended in a limbo of oblivion.

Forced migration due to war is not a choice; it is a desperate battle for survival.

From the Woman Scream cause, we demand safe passage, legal justice regardless of migration status, and an end to the violence that pursues them at every step.

No woman should pay for the right to live in peace with her dignity! Our voice is their shield. We are screaming! ✊💜

Rose Valland

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1JE7CpELSv/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Rose Valland spent four years watching the N***s loot France while quietly keeping a record of what they stole.

When German forces occupied Paris in 1940, the Jeu de Paume museum became a sorting center for thousands of artworks seized primarily from Jewish collectors and dealers. Paintings by Picasso, Matisse, Cézanne and other major artists passed through its rooms before being sent to Germany or claimed by N**i officials.

Valland, a French curator who remained at the museum, was allowed to stay because the Germans considered her useful and apparently harmless. They did not realize she understood German.

That mistake proved costly.

Without drawing attention to herself, Valland listened to conversations, copied shipping information and recorded names, destinations, train numbers and details about individual artworks. She sometimes worked from scraps of information she had seen only briefly. Discovery could have meant arrest, deportation or death.

She also witnessed Hermann Göring visit the museum repeatedly to select works for his personal collection.

Valland kept much of what she was doing secret, even from colleagues. By 1944, her information had become more than a private record. As Allied forces approached Paris, she learned that trains containing stolen art were preparing to leave France and passed crucial information to the Resistance. One shipment was prevented from reaching Germany.

After liberation, Valland did not simply hand over her notebooks and disappear. She joined the French First Army as a captain and went to Germany, helping locate repositories where stolen collections had been hidden. Her records contributed to the recovery of tens of thousands of works.

For years, she had occupied one of the least conspicuous positions in the room: a quiet museum employee standing near men who assumed she understood nothing.

She was taking notes.

Woman Scream: Our Commitment Against Child Marriage in Brazil

Continuing our mission against child marriage, we gathered at the Legislative Assembly of the State of São Paulo, Brazil, with partners in our cause. This event reinforces our dedication to childhood protection and the fight against early marriages, an initiative launched two years ago with a focus on schools, given the alarming increase in cases across the country.

Collaborators and allies of the 15th Woman Scream Festival (Grito de Mulher) convened in Brazil, thanks to our coordinator Soira Celestino, the festival’s representative in the country, with the support of Deputy Maria Luísa, yesterday, at the Alesp premises.

The central theme of the event was “Child Marriage: It’s Not a Game.” According to research conducted by Unifecaf, Brazil currently ranks 4th globally in formal child marriages—a statistic that underscores the urgency of this debate.

The event featured the participation of the President of Associação Manas Pretas, who joined Ednusa Ribeiro on the panel to present the organization’s projects and actions. Other committed institutions also participated, such as Bibli-ASPA Centro de Cultura, which showcased its project supporting refugee women and girls through art, as well as Plan International Brasil and other allied organizations.

Also present were Professor Carlos André, an activist for children’s rights and a writer, and Dr. Cleide Aparecido Vitorino, whose intervention concluded the event with a profound reflection on the necessity of combating child marriage in our society.

We extend our gratitude to all institutions, activists, and collaborators who participated in this crucial event in defense of girls’ rights in Brazil.

For them, we scream...

The name of our cause is translated into many languages and is lived in different realities depending on the country we reach, but at its core, the heartbeat that unites us is the same. One cause, one scream.

From Spanish to Serbian, from French to German, our name is a bridge toward the same goal: a life free of violence for all women and girls.

No matter how it is pronounced, the feeling is one. The accents change, the landscapes change, but the urgency of justice and the strength of our resistance know no borders.

We are a global network of voices that refuse to be silenced. People standing in solidarity, seeking the common good.

For many women, keeping life alive among the ruins is not an act of heroism; it is their everyday reality.

War tears apart the earth and extinguishes the lights of their homes, yet it is women and girls who continue carrying the heartbeat of what remains of a broken humanity. Motherhood in the midst of devastation is a painful and urgent miracle. It means whispering lullabies through the sound of bombings to quiet fear, fleeing with nothing but what they can carry across invisible borders, and tending to open wounds with no medicine other than pure love and resilience.

Girls watch their childhoods disappear in an instant under the flames of war, but the unbreakable strength of women reminds us that peace is not a privilege to be negotiated, but a fundamental right that must be protected and defended.

When the weapons finally fall silent and the dust settles, they rise. They rebuild communities from their foundations, weave invisible networks of solidarity, and raise roofs where there were once only ashes. They are not trophies of war nor silent victims; they are the true architects of resilience and the guardians of one another.

Today, we raise our voices for women living in conflict zones, for their pain, their struggle, and their extraordinary resistance.

Join our scream. Leave a message of support for these brave women in the comments and share this post so the world can hear them.

We are art and poetry in resistance. We are SCREAM.

THE WORLD TOLD US WHO WE ARE. NOW IT WILL HEAR US SAY WHO WE REALLY ARE.

For too long, they have tried to define us on their own terms. They have asked for our silence when we needed to scream.

Today we unite to change not only our destiny, but the way society perceives us. We are not victims waiting to be rescued; we are the force that is transforming the world from its roots.
Through poetry, art, and awareness, we are building a place where being a woman is not an act of survival, but one of full freedom.

If you feel this message belongs to you, if you know your voice has a weight that no one can ignore, this is your place. Do not walk alone. Join our space and help us make this scream reach every corner where silence still prevails.

We are poetry, we are art, we are WOMAN SCREAM.

THE HIDDEN WAR: THE MOST DANGEROUS PLACE HAS NO TRENCHES.

Today, while the world keeps turning, 137 women will not return home. And the most painful part is that many of them were already there. We have been taught to fear the streets, the darkness, and strangers, but the statistics scream a much more bitter truth: the home has become the most hostile battlefield.

We are not talking about a distant war with uniforms and flags. We are talking about the everyday war, the one that happens within four walls, in silence, under the roof that should be a refuge but ends up being a trap. We have spent centuries asking nicely, educating, resisting, and raising our voices, but the counter of broken lives does not stop.

We do not want to be just another number in tomorrow’s newspaper. We want the home to be peace again and for life to stop being an act of survival. Share this message if you also feel that enough is enough, that silence no longer protects us, and that every lost name hurts us all.

Your voice is the fuel that keeps this fire alive. Tell us below what this struggle means to you and why you refuse to be silent.

We are poetry, we are art, we are WOMAN SCREAM.

THE NEW BATTLEFRONT: DIGITAL VIOLENCE

From the moment we are born, women face different types of violence, with the silent ones being the worst and causing the most harm. For instance, what happens behind a screen does not stay in the virtual world. Today, technology has become a double-edged sword that many use to try and silence us.

Online harassment, the non-consensual sharing of images, and the use of artificial intelligence to create abusive content are the new forms of a war that seeks to destroy our peace and self-esteem. Global forums like Women Deliver 2026 have denounced that digital violence is not a secondary issue. It is a tool of control aimed at making women withdraw from public spaces and stop raising their voices. What starts as a hate comment or a manipulated image ends up affecting our mental health, physical safety, and our right to exist freely in the modern era.

We cannot allow fear to dictate how we use our voice. Digital violence is real, it hurts, and it has profound consequences on the lives of thousands of women and girls, especially the most vulnerable who lack resources to defend themselves. It is urgent to demand laws that protect us and platforms that stop being accomplices to abuse. Our digital presence is an act of resistance, and our scream must also resonate strongly online.

If you have gone through this or know someone who is living it, remember that you are not alone. There are options, and not sharing material that can be used for these purposes is one of them. Your voice has power and your digital space belongs to you by right. Do not back down or allow them to turn you off with a click.

We are poetry, we are art, we are WOMAN SCREAM.
