Women's March

Saturday, January 21, 2017 - Today around the world women marched to show support for all women. The purpose of the march was to show we were united in our belief that women are still treated as second class citizens. This was my first march ever. The weather was horrible. It rained and I was sure it would keep people from attending. The organizers were expect 2200 people. Over 5,000 showed up. It was amazing! I had such a good time. We sang and chanted and it felt so nice to be surrounded by so many people who believe the same as me. I love East Tennessee, but the politics of the region make me feel very isolated sometimes.
