I am joining the disability march because…. I believe in loving ALL people created in God’s image, that all of us are created equal, that we are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

I’m joining the march to take a stand against hate.  I want to show Trump’s supporters, as well as the rest of the world, that Trump’s vile speech and behavior do not represent what most Americans believe in.   I want to continue the fight against racism, misogyny, and ableism.

Hi, I’m Lisa P, and I’ve been hoping to participate in our local march in Oregon. It’s likely my chronic migraines will keep me home, so I’m very happy to be represented here!

My reasoning isn’t as visible but just as understandable. My heart and soul support everything about this but crippling anxiety keeps me inside. But I’ll be damned if this is the world my niece grows up in. I’m a new game engineer just trying to figure it all out.
