Donald Trump is the biggest threat to Women’s Liberty in half a century, as well as being the most racist president since last century as well. People need to know that Liberty does not mean letting a narcissist run the country. Yes, there are issues wrong, yes theres a huge divide between “both sides”, but…

I am joining this march because my heart aches to stand up against the incoming administration. I was diagnosed with brain cancer and had surgery this fall.

I march here because I can’t march elsewhere. I march for all of us under threat. I march for our safety. I march for our wellbeing. I march for our rights. I was an English professor and writing center director. I am currently unable to work because of my disability.
