Hello respected former educator. With all due respect and appreciation. I'm just a simple gal who remembers the pain of Anita Hill during Senate testimony. "Memories" from "CATS".

most of the other protest going on in the country this (Tues) and I know Philly usually has pretty big turnouts for marches/protests. I wanted to make sure Philadelphians are aware of it.

My first Philly protest was in 1979 for an anti-draft event. Carter was bringing it back at the time.

here in San Diego, probably since I am from Phila it cross referrenced me yesterday. Since it is on Sat and not Tues I felt I should post it right away. Go to the link in the OP for contact info.

Just now I found my own NEWLY announced local protest. There were two planned for Tues but they are 45 min away then today it was just announced that a BIG one will be on Sat (like the Philly one). I am glad to see this. I understand that Tues was chosen due to the date (the 100th anniv of the 19th Amend) but not many people will be able to fo in the middle of the week during the daytime.
