I’m an American with disabilities and the parent of six children, several of whom have significant disabilities. I wouldn’t have been marching in the main march on Saturday because I’m an observant Jewish, but even if the march had been held on another day of the week my psychiatric conditions would have prevented me from…

I am joining the disability march because I have a chronic illness that prevents me from standing for long periods of time, and I still want my voice to be heard. I am also concerned about violence or mistreatment by police due to my status as a transgender individual if I were to try and…

 I am disabled, but I work part time. I have Medicaid. My brother is disabled, and he cannot work. He is reliant on government aide for his independence and health. This is not inherently a death sentence but under Trump it might be. Not a quick death, not a violent death, but a state sanctioned…

I’m joining the march because I didn’t vote for the monster who brags about sexually assaulting women and mocks disabled reporters and enables Nazis. Because I refuse to be on the wrong side of history. As a disabled queer woman, the new president is my natural enemy.

Diagnosed with M.S. in 2004. Mother of 5. Unable to work as a result of my M.S. because managing my M.S. is a full-time job 24/7. My biggest reason for participating in this march is because I am appalled by Trump mocking a disabled reporter!
