I would like to join because I have a bad hip and cannot march. I live in Birmingham, AL and am a blue dot in a very red state!

I am grateful for the opportunity to join in the protest in spite of my physical and mental health limitations. What is happening is not normal. Trump is not well. He is not fit for office. I am terrified for the world. I am terrified that the people he is choosing to help him are…

I’m joining the disability march because I desperately want to protest physically but last time I tried I was in intense pain afterwards. I detest the way nearly half of the country has chosen to behave – hating all of these people for the worst reasons – and want to be a voice for those…

As a person with invisible disabilities, the idea that Donald Trump will be president frightens and angers me. I’m trying to let go as much as possible but am not giving up the good fight. I was planning on going to my local march but because of noise/crowd control it might be better for myself…

Having marched, funded, and spoken for causes that I feel are, now, at risk, I want to participate in this march. I’m unable to do so for physical reasons. Generations of people I’ll never know helped change the trajectory of my life for the better. I have a duty to, also, “make a more perfect…
