"We are so
excited about the energy and interest in the Women's March on
Washington. We only started working on this yesterday and are
overwhelmed with the support and many great questions.
Interest in the Women's March on Washington has grown so quickly. I am leading the MA Contingent (at least for now).
Inclusivity:
This is an INCLUSIVE and PEACEFUL march and EVERYONE who supports women's rights are welcome:
- Women & Girls & Femmes & GNC & GF
- Men & Boys
- Families
- People of Color
- Immigrants
- LGBTQI Community
- Folks with disabilities
- ALL religious communities
- Climate Change Advocates
- Anyone else who wants to peacefully march!
We are looking for organizations with whom to partner/reach out to and
we are working on the speaking program. PM if you have ideas,
suggestions, or would like to get involved in a deeper way.
Transportation:
We are looking into chartering busses from various regions in the
state. It all depends on interest and cost. We will be looking for
donations at some point, but we won't be able to make final decisions
about travel for another week or so. If you are unable or not interested
in taking the bus, then please arrange your own transport. You may be
able to find others here who are interested in carpooling.
Lodging:
If you would rather stay overnight and not travel to and back from DC
on the same day, then please feel free to make your own hotel
arrangements. But, please note that we are also working on a block of
rooms. There just aren't guarantees we will be able to get rooms to
accommodate all of us.
Communications:
We are working on a
website which will be a better way to address questions, ideas, and
concerns that you have. Once that is up and running we will let you know
here.
A little bit about me:
I am a public health social
worker and a lifelong advocate for racial and social justice. I am a
single mom, work full time, and am in school. I say all this so that if I
dont' get back to you right away, please be patient. I am very
committed to this work and this March and will respond as soon as I can!"
