Recap: The Women's March

Yesterday I joined at least 50,000 people for the Women's March and Rally in San Francisco. We lucked out with a very sunny day, and I was inspired by all of the speakers. I was also proud to see that the march was much more inclusive than last year. The rally opened with a Native American prayer, and many more of the speeches were focused on immigration and people of color. 

However, as many of the participants said, being involved requires more than just showing up for a rally once a year. We all need to become civically involved and vote in the midterm elections, and become involved on the local level. I have signed up for a training with Swing Left on February 4, and am continuing to seek out ways to become more involved.

Did you attend the march and how are you getting involved in your community?
