Why I Am Joining The March: Whilst currently holding down a four day a week job, I do not have the energy to travel and march in London today as I would have liked. I am joining the disability march in solidarity for people who feel fearful for their well being as we go into…

I am marching (virtually) in hope that my four amazing nieces will keep the rights my great-grandmother, grandmother, and mother’s generations fought for and to which I have been privileged. I am marching in hope that my nieces will one day have full equal rights, equal pay, equal access to healthcare, equal access to justice…

Why I am joining the march: The President of the USA has power that extends way beyond the USA. His hateful agenda affects the whole world. I am bisexual, queer, chronically ill, and Pagan. I have family of both blood and soul here and in the USA who are all of the above, and transgender,…

Why I Am Joining The March: I am Heather and I am joining the online march because I am a transplant patient taking immunosuppressants, so being in a large crowd is dangerous for me. I march today in the hope that our new president will be aware of people like me whose lives depend on…

Regardless of race, ability, gender, sexual preference, age, or religion.  Women’s rights are human rights and we deserve to be treated equally, and live without fear. I rely on disability and Medicare to survive. We need to ensure that not only equality…

Why I Am Joining The March: Eight years ago, I had the incredible honor of quickly meeting President Obama during his presidential campaign in 2008. As you can see from this photo, I was very happy to have my picture taken with him too. At the time, I was a 14-year-old girl in Middle School. Middle…

I am joining the disability march because I am a human. The current president of the US doesn’t think so, because my way of Woman-ness includes diverse tomboy behaviors and crashing about in a wheelchair. Poor fellow probably hasn’t seen my type much. Would seeing me change his mind about my individual humanity? Nah, probably…
