I march because I still don’t understand why women are treated as a minority when there’s actually more of us in the world than men. Because I’m sure that a man would love to mansplain this to me. Because the world belongs to all and not just for one orange blob and his minions. Because…

This is my 92-year-old mother, who was a community activist in the 1960s, 70s,and 80s. We marched as a family in the urban city streets of Oakland. And we believe that our voices still count.

Because Hillary fought for everyone, while Trump values no one but himself. I will not allow the civil rights of any group to be taken away. We as a nation are Stronger Together and we must resist Trump and anyone else who sees our rights as something inconsequential, a distraction.

I have arthritis and am not able to participate in either the Washington or Sacramento, CA marches, although I would LOVE TO! I am 69-years-old and was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. I am very concerned about the ACA and even Medicare and Social Security being repealed or privatized, as many people will lose their…
