 Our Vision:

We come together to facilitate knowledge, empowerment, positive dialogue, and the hope to further each individual’s ability to recognize and change the inequalities we experience on a daily basis. In solidarity we stand to raise awareness of the marginalization of our nation, and become advocates for human rights. We stand to bring justice to women’s health and reproductive concerns; Gender based violence inequalities, promotion of female economic empowerment, and access to educational opportunities to engage with leaders of the community and social justice advocates alike. We challenge you to rally in diversity with pride and respect to support the revolutionary awakening of true peace and justice within our current state of democracy, inviting defenders of equality, hope, knowledge, and empowerment to assure a more unified today and better tomorrow.

​

​WHY WE ARE MARCHING:

It is our hope to prepare individuals to create dialogue and give them resources not only to resolve their issues they are experiencing during this election, but those around them, ultimately (hopefully) being a continuation of our social justice network. I would love this to be an opportunity to make you an ally. Now more than ever we need to build a foundation of support, guidance, and political justice that will add to the unity of humanity once more. I thank you for taking the time to read this, and for considering joining us in this movement. Its truly a privilege to share our vision with you. We hope you will consider marching in solidarity with us.
