I wish to participate because this current president is abhorrent, and is a threat to human rights, and global safety. I am an artist living in Los Angeles, and have fibromyalgia, which keeps me from marching.   I am a veteran of past marches and appreciate being able to participate in this way!  Thank you!…

I’m joining the disability march because my mom is going to the Denver Women’s March, and I can’t go because it’s a hassle and exhausting for me with the wheelchair. I really wanted to go, but I didn’t want to bring it up because I felt it would be too much work for her, and…

Why I’m Marching: Tomorrow it will be 34C in Brisbane, Australia where I live (that’s more than 94F for you Americans).
