Why I Am Joining The March: I am virtually joining my sisters from Flawless Brown, an artist collective for women of color at Emerson College, and the other students of Emerson. Having Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, the march was just not possible for my body but now I am able to stand with my sisters fighting for…

Why am I joining the march? It is time to stand and be counted. Women’s rights, the equality of all people no matter what the gender, color of skin or disability, must be protected. My wife and I cannot participate in a march because of disability, but we can walk along aside others in our cyber…

I am 12 years old and I have cerebral palsy. I wish my mom and I could go to the real walk in DC but it’s not possible for me to travel, so easily. I have been taught that women’s rights are human rights. I cannot speak in real life but I do want my…

I am joining the march because as a woman, as an artist, as a lover of humans…I cannot sit idly by while freedoms are threatened. If I could be there in person, I would…but I have fibromyalgia, and am currently exhausted. Having that said, my access to affordable healthcare hangs in the balance, and again, I…

I’m a mom who is unable to attend this march due to physical disabilities. However, I wish I could, because I cannot support a president who is, himself, so unabidingly unqualified for this tremendous responsibility, let alone a person who has admitted (even bragged) about sexually assaulting and degrading women, who has (on video) bullied…
