I’m a two-time cancer survivor. I suffer pain, a blown immune system, and mobility issues. It isn’t easy sitting this out. I’ve been in every demonstration I could get to, beginning in the 60s with Civil Rights, Women’s Rights, Vietnam, Nixon. My last attempt was the day after 9/11 when I limped my way through DC demonstrating…

I am joining the march to demonstrate that I will not accept the marginalization, oppression, repression, or discrimination of myself or any group of people. As a woman, my purpose is not to look good and to blandly accept assessments as to how well I meet that goal. I am a person, not a pussy…

I’m marching for equal rights for ALL women. Even before becoming president, Donald Trump has put down, belittled, bullied, and disregarded the rights of every category of women I can think of. Trump’s policies will disproportionately effect women and we need to fight back! As a young woman, I’m also marching for the many many older women who came before me and fought for the rights I have…

And also for continued access for…
