Martha Calie

Why I am joining the march: I wish that I could march because I understand that I’m a person who has needs just like every woman.  Sometimes I have it pretty good and realize that other women have it much harder than I do.  I’m on their side.  I’m with these women because we may…

Kaleolani Garcia

Why I am joining the march: I am joining for all people who are like me with mental and physical limitations. I’m joining for my queer child (their words for themselves). I’m joining for my children and husband as people of color. I join as a part Hawaiian. I join for things that I believe…

Why I’m joining the march: I feel so strongly about advocating for women’s rights, especially disabled women. I cannot attend marches or protests physically due to both physical and mental disabilities, so I jumped at the opportunity to do one online!

I am joining the march because I have 2 young daughters who need to know that they have worth and a voice. They, along with the rest of the nation, deserve better than what we are being given. We need to stand together to fight the intolerance and hate that is being spread by Trump…

Akua

I advocate for human rights, justice, equality, parity, environmental responsibility, fair treatment and paratransit. I thank this who are physically able to be there and speak the truth to power, and proclaim that WE, The People, are for the people in all our ages, stages, appearances and capabilities. I am a paraplegic, stricken by idiopathic…

Amy

I fought for women’s rights once in this lifetime. It’s come up again. This time, I can’t physically march, but my heart can still carry the cause.

Tabitha

I’m joining because I find Donald Trump completely underqualified for the office of US president. His temperament, his actions and rhetoric are very crude and he’ll reverse our freedoms 50 or so years with his xenophobic thoughts and policies! Aside from my Multiple Sclerosis limiting my mobility to physically march, I’m on a fixed social…
