I have marched on Washington many times. Being a presence in the women’s community has been important to me for my entire adult life. I cannot march now because I have chronic pain and fibromyalgia. I struggle to even walk on some days. And traveling is also hard. So I will participate through the disability…

Hello! I’m very excited to join the disability march, as I wanted to attend in DC, but am unable to handle it at the moment. As a disabled student, health care is so important to my life. Without it, I would not be able to attend school. Being able to stay on my parents health…

Why I’m Marching: Tomorrow it will be 34C in Brisbane, Australia where I live (that’s more than 94F for you Americans).

The determination of women not only in DC but around the world to stand together and fight for our…

I am joining the disability march to stand up for the rights of the disabled and everyone else whose rights are threatened under the new regime. I work, I pay my taxes, and I vote and I am raising my voice to demand that those representing US do the work FOR us. Bio – I…

I want to be counted among those standing for human rights in these unjust times.  I am 71 years old, disabled for 17 years – still discovering new genetic mutations that define my life. I have been an R.N. for 50 years. Despite protesting the same things all this time, I have faith that every one…

I’m joining the march because women’s rights, particularly reproductive rights and the rights of survivors of sexual assault, are close to my heart. Unfortunately, my anxiety and panic disorder make large crowds extremely difficult. Onward, folks. Let’s raise hell. AS is a writer and teacher. Her blog about anxiety can be found at itsonlyfear.org.
