The Women’s Marches around the USA and the world were an
amazing act of bravery, celebration, and “wake up, we’re here and we will be
heard.” The energy at the marches was
uplifting and powerful, as shared with me by a friend who attend the St. Paul, Minnesota March.
Here are some pictures that share hopefulness, in a time
when the US president and administration are not supporting women, children,
Muslims, LGBT people, the environment or the Arts.
One group of women, who were in the hospital, found a way to
be part of the unity.

Black women came and were angry at white women. Wow, I’ve got work to do on connecting with
black people. The word Intersection felt
good to me. Peoples coming together, no
matter their color, their sex, their religion and working together.
