I am from Belgium and I would love to join the march in Brussels, but I am hospitalized right now (and have been for 2 months now) for my bad mental state of mind (depression, anxiety, ….). I wish I could join the march, and thus will join this march, because I feel we need…

I’m joining the march to resist the rhetoric of the new administration and to support all that are and will be negatively affected by it. I am 22 years old and have been sick since I can remember. My illnesses are invisible but leave me bed bound and unable to join in most of the…

Trump Is NOT My President! I am marching for Seniors everywhere who depend upon Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. I’m marching for women’s health care, Planned Parenthood, equality of marriage, the poor, voting rights, a free press, and strong regulations to keep our water and air clean.

I am a 74-year-old senior, partially blind and have osteoporosis, leery of being jostled or knocked down. I can’t risk more fractures after 10 of them. Don’t support Mr. Trump or any hateful policies of discrimination. Scared of him and his cabinet.

As an activist, starting as a draft counselor during the Viet Nam war, attending peaceful demonstrations, marches and rallies has always been a part of my life. The Women’s March is very important at this time to…
