I cannot physically march, as I must focus my attention on healing from my assault and the past traumas it has brought back, but I join in solidarity and spirit. You are never alone, not while I draw breath.

Website: http://www.elenasantangelo.comWhy I Am Joining The March : So much that I care about is at stake. I live in a wonderfully diverse community (1/3 black, 1/3 white, 1/4 Latino, the rest, everyone else).
