My daughters and I are joining the march as a way to rebel against people who hate. We all have chronic illnesses with invisible disabilities. This new administration is threatening us with losing our healthcare, our rights to our bodies and the ability to speak for ourselves and decide our futures. All because we don’t…

I used to walk quickly and with purpose. Now my body won’t let me do that, but my mind has not been dulled! I stand and walk arm in arm virtually with my sisters. Before my disability I was a corporate trainer for a national Bank. I’m still a wife, mother, sister and daughter and…

I march because I want my daughters to know that what they are seeing from the people of this country is not okay. That bigotry of any kind is reprehensible. That I want them to have a world where people lift each other up instead of stepping on each other. That funding education is the…

Because of sensory overload a big march is not a comfortable thing to do. A virtual march was a better fit. Also I want to support people like myself and march with them. Bea is an 8 year old who is an activist, artist, autistic and hyperlexic.

I’m tired of hearing able-bodied people argue about whether or not we deserve healthcare, autonomy, or even our lives. We need our voices to be heard and respected.

I badly wanted to march in DC in solidarity with all of my sisters and our allies.  Unfortunately, I have severe pulmonary hypertension and receive life-sustaining medication 24/7 from an infusion pump.  Even if I could tolerate the physical demand, the risk of being unable to access my medication in the event that I was…

I am marching because I am furious and heartbroken at the same time. I will not stand by and allow the environmental, social, and economic gains we’ve made in this country be decimated by this incoming administration.  As a woman with a disability, the mother of children with disabilities, advocate of persons with disabilities and…

I am joining the march to protect Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid, and to protect our planet (water, air, soil) from the fossil fuel industry. I am 68 yrs old and broke my hip in 2015. No more marching in DC for me.
