Why I Am Joining The March : My life, my friends’ lives, and the lives of millions upon millions of people are threatened by Trump. Hate crimes have risen sharply, the health care keeping my friends alive is under attack, and I refuse to treat a man who wants me and everyone I care about…

Rev. Freddye James

I am a disabled woman from Atlanta, GA.  I’ve had 8 back operations and walk with a cane.  I’d like to march in person to show my solidarity with the other marchers and the cause.  Unfortunately I can’t, but I can show my support this way. I am a minister of the Gospel and a…

Chera Sherman-Breland

I march for equality for all. I am Caucasian and my husband of 24 years is African American. We have two amazing boys. I want them to be judged by the content of their character, rather than the color of their skin. Thank you for the support!

I am joining the disability march because we are marginalized, minimized, and overlooked, and we deserve to have a voice in our government. It seems like everyone I talk to either has a disability or loves someone who does, so I’m wondering if we truly are a minority. It’s also important for me to be…

I would go to DC if I could and when I saw that I could be a part of a virtual march I was thrilled. I have surgery scheduled for the end of January and right now have a hip too painful to walk on. Thank you for this opportunity !!!
