Activists Plan Massive Anti-Trump DC March For Jan. 18
The Washington Post reports:
Tens of thousands of people are expected in Washington ahead of Inauguration Day in January to protest President-elect Donald Trump and policy priorities that they say will undermine the rights of women, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community and racial and religious minorities.
The demonstration, dubbed the “People’s March on Washington,” is scheduled for Jan. 18, two days before the inauguration. It is being organized by leading civil rights, racial justice and reproductive health organizations, including the Women’s March and Abortion Access Now, a coalition of organizations including the ACLU, Planned Parenthood and the National Women’s Law Center.
Organizers estimate 50,000 people will attend, according to a permit application, during a season when officials expect a surge of protests — and celebrations — from across the political spectrum
