I march because I believe taking a stand for women’s rights is a stand for human rights. I believe in a fundamental respect for all life. I want to see a society with more compassion for each other, and more appreciation for our different paths. The new administration is the opposite of this. I will not remain silent in the face of this hate, this fear.

I work in the Equine Industry and am currently studying to potentially be an instructor in the next few years. I have had new blade prosthetics for six months and they have been life changing. I am able to run for the first time in 17 years and I love it. I hated running before, so this just proves what you can learn to miss when it is gone!
