You do not have to be a woman to partake in the Jan 20 and 21, 2018 Women's Marches

planned for those days. Everyone who cares about where this current admin and Congress is heading should also participate. This will be our year to turn the US BLUE. The theme is "Hear Our Votes" and is aimed at the GOP and moron who are selling our country to the Russians, their propaganda and kicking them out in the midterms. All are invited to attend the over 200 marches on Jan 20th across the US and the planet and additional sister marches on Jan 21st. Here is a partial list of the cities and dates. You do NOT need a ticket, if it is mentioned it is purely for the planners to get a projected head count since the list is growing daily. Spread the word on social media (I can't do that myself so I need your help).

But why weren’t these protests organized to protest the tax bill that disproportionately impacts women of color?

6. About a third of the NYC marchers were men last time. Many in pink hats. They were wonderful!

It's a great day. I already have plans for the next one in NYC.

I'll say that about 10% were men. My daughter and I were there. What a day.
We'll be there again on the 21st. You betcha.
