I marched in the 1960’s and 1970’s when I was young and able.  I heard “I have a dream” in real time.  I never imagined that I would need to march again in my 70’s in my wheelchair.  Thank you for letting me participate in the Women’s March 2017.

Why I Am Joining The March : Liberty and democracy are always under the shadow of those who would seize power for themselves. Denigrating women and minorities are always the tools of the oppressor. I can’t walk very well, but I stand with everyone fighting for the rights of all.

Why I am joining the March: I must stand up and take action to help protect women, minorities, disabled people and anyone who is oppressed by people in power. We cannot let our country slide back to more dangerous times when discrimination was tolerated. We cannot allow our rights to be stripped away. We cannot…
