    “The freedom of women’s voices is extremely important not only for myself but for the youth of every gender. I’ve always voiced my opinion and feel comfortable doing so, as it is a cause I am passionate about. My participation is a very organic thing. For the past few months, I have openly expressed my disappointment with the current political climate and have felt its tension both in my personal life (with friends, family) and my professional career. To not be a part of the Women’s March would be shameful, especially as we the people truly are the voices of change.”

    “I march because I have been blessed that strong women run in my veins. We unite because [it’s] our bodies, our choice. Walk so that the universe hears us loud and very clear that diversity, LGBTQ, disability, health care, education, Black Lives, climate change, and immigration matter! I march because moving forward is the only direction I know.”

    “We march because we are feminists, we are allies, and my family includes survivors of sexual assault, which we will never stand for!”

    “I am marching because it is my responsibility to my ancestors, who died to afford me the rights I have today. I am marching because we have no choice but to stand up for what is right.”

    “I march because I believe all people deserve to be recognized and protected. It wasn’t even an option for me. I knew I had to be there.”
