There was a staggering number of over 5 million women and men that gathered together last
Saturday to protest equal rights and among other things. There was a large number of people who
were protesting Trumps presidency and what better time to do that then right after his very own
inauguration. They carried signs that said, "Immigrants Against Trump" and more comedic ones like,
"You Cant Comb Over Racism".
There were many other creative
signs that expressed the frustration
that people had against Trump as
well as celebrities that gave
empowering speeches like
Madonna, America Ferrera, Gloria
Steinem, and more.
If you looked among the crowd you would also see protesters standing up for pro-choice meaning
pro-abortion that is said that Trump is trying to take away this option once president. You would see
signs that say, "My Body My Choice" and "Keep Abortion Legal", to emphasize the importance of
a women's body a women's choice.
Everywhere you looked was an impressive sight to see and a memorable event that is one for
the books. Some may not notice it now but this event has left a mark on history. It is a true
representation of women as a whole coming together to speak up against global issues and fight for
justice.
