Our daughter Bonnie and I, along with 2 of my granddaughters, were part of the millions of souls sending a message that we won’t back down, and intend to work for our inclusive society and social justice. The crowd was polite, progressive and multi-everything!!!
Most uplifting for me was the youth of the speakers - Elizabeth Warren was probably the oldest. Or perhaps the Water Protector who had spent her summer at Standing Rock was of my generation. We have some very strong, articulate, energetic young women here
in the Northeast sector of the US. I intend to use my wiley energies to help them organize into effective resistance to the threat of losing the rights that women have gained in the last 150 years.

<div class="">The organizing group just sent an email out to the more-than-100,000 on their local contacts list. </div>
<div class="">Subject: The Next Steps. We <u class="">will</u> organize to assure that Saturday’s march was NOT just a flash in the pan.</div>
