Add a massive mobilization of feminists in D.C. to the list of ways that people hope to combat the presidency of a man who has repeatedly insulted, shamed, and bragged about assaulting women.
Several people came up with the idea independently and created different event pages. As they spread on Facebook, they found each other and agreed to team up on a Million Woman March.
"It's the most organic thing you’ve ever heard of," says Bob Bland, a New York-based entrepreneur, fashion designer, and activist. "We made the decision to collaborate and consolidate early yesterday—right after we found out about each other." She teamed up with Fontaine Pearson, who is based in Tennessee, and Evie Harmon, in South Carolina—none of whom knew each other previously—to help lead the growing interest in showing up en masse in Washington.
Within hours of consolidating their efforts, tens of thousands of women (and men) said they planned to attend a march from the Lincoln Memorial to the White House on January 21, Donald Trump's first full day in office. State-level coordinators are helping lead efforts to bring people in, and a group in D.C. is already working on permitting and other logistics.

Now, you just KNOW he is hetero!
There will not be anywhere close to a million women. Wait and see.
Lesbians for Losers ?
Communist _unts for Clinton ?
They ran a criminal for president.
She lost the election very badly.
And they have decided to treat the election defeat as an insult and they insist that they should get their way in spite of it.
Democrats = Thug Life.
HOO Boy! Just like That “Million Mom March”. WooHoo
such an intelligent decision to let women vote...
They are already fighting over the name of the event because million is reserved for the ‘legacy’ of the Farrakhan March.
Well, if you make the criterion for coming that you have to bring a husband along, that will cut the numbers down - a lot.
One million women have been sexually harassed by Donald Trump!!?
The man is a powerhouse! Just what we need to lead us.
;^)
Imagine 1 million Bella Abzugs, Barbara Mukulskis, if you dare.
My apologies to those of you still dining.
Like the Million Man March, they’ll be lucky to get 100,000.
The largest demonstration in DC ever was the Tea Party march 9/12/2009, 2 million people and the Ministry of Propaganda made it go down the memory hole like it never happened.
