I live on the West Coast, and this morning around 9, I woke up with a strong seizing feeling in my gut. The sense was: pay attention — and this was to something in the collective, not something in the singular. I watched the high ceiling of the room. As the clock moved across the…

Our nation has made great strides for our disenfranchised, for our minority brothers and sisters, for our rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And now those strides are endangered. I am frightened for my friends whose rights are being threatened because of who they worship, or who they love, or simply the…

I am joining the march in solidarity with other women and allies who are marching today for woman’s rights and for equity and social justice for all people. I am joining in memory of women who have marched before us and in honor and celebration of those who will be “speaking truth to power” in…

I’m joining the disability march, because Donald Trump’s presidency threatens the lives and rights of all Americans. Those of us with disabilities have already faced years of discrimination and bullying, and I will not stand for a President who will normalize and defend bigotry, racism, and discrimination.

I refuse to be a bystander as the well-being of immigrants, people of color, LGBTQ individuals, and people with disabilities is threatened. My autoimmune disease, ulcerative colitis, prevents me from physically participating in the women’s march, but you can bet I will be present in spirit now and for the next four years. I am…

I am a 45 year old very active woman. I am now limited in my activities due to a foot surgery . Healing/ recovery did not occur as anticipated by medical team. I’ve tried every modality of treatment to no avail. I have been diagnosed with chronic pain. I want to participate in this virtual…

Joining the disability march is such a great opportunity for those of us who aren’t physically able to be there in person, and I’m so grateful to be a part of it. The Women’s March is a show of solidarity for women from all walks of life: every race, belief, lifestyle, and occupation. Our voices…
