I am grateful for this option to be a part of history. I have mental illness and frequent attacks so the crowds would be overwhelming. Thank you for allowing accessibility for all.

I am joining the disability march because I am a woman with disabilities who believes in equality and human rights for everyone, especially women, minority groups, immigrants, people with disabilities and the list goes on.  The growing movements in the United States to squelch women’s rights, discriminate against immigrants, racial minorities, religious minorities etc., are…
