I am disabled, but I work part time. I have Medicaid. My brother is disabled, and he cannot work. He is reliant on government aide for his independence and health. This is not inherently a death sentence but under Trump it might be. Not a quick death, not a violent death, but a state sanctioned…

I’m joining the march because I didn’t vote for the monster who brags about sexually assaulting women and mocks disabled reporters and enables Nazis. Because I refuse to be on the wrong side of history. As a disabled queer woman, the new president is my natural enemy.

Diagnosed with M.S. in 2004. Mother of 5. Unable to work as a result of my M.S. because managing my M.S. is a full-time job 24/7. My biggest reason for participating in this march is because I am appalled by Trump mocking a disabled reporter!

My knee arthritis keeps me from traveling to Washington, but many friends are there and I wish I could be with them.  Trump is our President now, but I will NOT stand by and allow anyone to believe I support his racism, misogyny and narcissim.  His shoot-from-the-hip attitude scares me.  I fear for all of…

I am marching because women, disabled women, should be treated equally. Disabled women are looked down on, when they should be…

I am a woman with disabilities and cannot join in the march. I cannot believe this travesty that we are allowing this despicable man to be our leader.

I’m a long-time feminist and a lesbian, and have been an activist for women, for reproductive justice, for people with disabilities and for LGBT issues for decades. I’m heartened by the amazing support for the Marches all…

I am a writer and teacher in Houston, Texas. For more about my work, see lesliecschwartz.com. The picture included of me shows me on a day when my legs were not functioning that well and I was using a cane. I have an autoimmune disease that affects my nervous system and can make mobility a…
