Mujeres March For America

Mujeres March For America

This Saturday, January 21, 2017 will mark a historic time across the nation. The Women’s March will bring out hundreds of thousands of women, possibly over indexing pass the million mark. Women of all ages, backgrounds and ethnic, religious origins will march in solidarity and in the spirit of democracy to combat the mounting toxic sexism, patriarchy, rape culture, racism, xenophobia, harassment, and violence that has affected our work, family and personal lives.
