I hate everything about this new “president”.  What he stands for, what he says, what he wants to do, his crimes and sleazy things he has done all his life.  Our democracy is in peril.  He is a dictator-in-training. If I was able to be on my feet all day and marching I would be…

The Trump/Pence administration has a long list of people they intend to marginalize based on gender, orientation, race, religion, socio-economic status, and other factors.  I’m in several of those to-be-marginalized groups, and every other group includes people I care for.  Even if there were no one I know personally at risk for being marginalized, I’m…

I’m joining the march to make my voice heard. The past election cycle, and the results thereof, shook me to my core. I want Trump to know that my rights, as a transmale, chronically ill, transient individual, and indeed the rights of all minorities that make up our nation, are basic human rights. I want…

Intersectionality seems to be a popular theme; well, I’m female. I’m disabled. I’m a Pagan. I’m fighting for social justice for PoC, for religious freedom, for…

With a pre-existing condition of migraines compounded by bilateral neuropathy, I had no affordable options. Without the ACA I will not be able to…

I’m joining the Disability March for several reasons. First, the concept is brilliant! As a social justice and political activist, it’s disappointing that I can no longer participate in marches. The routes are too long, the standing is too much, and the pace is too fast. My mobility impairment leaves me exhausted and in serious…

I’m joining the Disability March to stand with my fellow humans who recognize that disability does not define our worth or dignity. I choose to say that I am standing with other disabled people because my chronic pain prevents me from sitting. Standing doesn’t look like a limitation or a disability but it can be,…
