American women march against Trump
21-1-2019
Protests by American women against President Donald Trump’s policy continue. Women marched in hundreds of US cities on Saturday marking the second anniversary of demonstrations joined by millions of protestors one day after Trump’s inauguration in January 2017. In collaboration with the grassroots coalition, ‘March On’, ‘Women’s March’, a non-profit American organization organized the rally in Washington DC, with many similar events in other cities. The purpose of the marches, according to the organizers, is to campaign for policies on raising the minimum wage and access to reproductive and healthcare and voting rights, among other matters. These demos represent an opportunity to celebrate the gains made during 2018 elections, where more women were elected to the US Congress than ever before.
