On October 2, were going to send the Supreme Court and lawmakers across the country a clear, unified message. The attack on our reproductive rights will not be tolerated.

Abortion has never been fully accessible, but we are at the risk of losing our reproductive freedom completely. The call to action is clear, and urgent. The relentless attacks from Texas to Mississippi are ramping up quickly. Anti-choice extremists have a deep desire to return to a time when there was more clear and effective domination and control over queer and trans folks, women, and people of color; they want to revive those old values and societal norms to the point of re-acceptance. The authoritarian agenda of reproductive control is fueled by misogyny and racism - and we must challenge it, together.
On October 2, we're marching in every single state ahead of the Supreme Court reconvening on October 4. Women's March and more than 90 other organizations, including National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health, Planned Parenthood, SHERO Mississippi, Mississippi in Action, Access Reproductive Care-Southeast, The Frontline, Working Families Party, and SisterSong, are organizing a national call to mobilize and defend our reproductive rights.
The first Women's March 2017 was the largest protest in our History. Let's make this one even bigger.

(15,093 posts)5000 were expected and 20,000 showed up. A whole lot of noise. It was awesome. People were flowing out of side streets to join the march. Mostly women but a whole lot of men and lots of kids. Young and old, wheelchairs and strollers. Some in crazy costumes.
I'm ready for tomorrow.

(52,312 posts)Over 40,000 flooded the streets. I was in the front and my sister went up to her office building where she had a view of the city. It was amazing...all the smaller streets leading to the march were swollen with pink hats. It was a sea of people in every direction.
