Women’s March – Why Did They March In San Diego?

EPISODE: 008

This time last weekend hundreds of thousands of people took part in the Women’s March in Washington D.C. , the day after President Trump was sworn into office. Thousands more took part in demonstrations across the nation and the world. Some of their concerns are women’s rights, access to health care and how immigrants, the LGBTQ community, and some faiths might be treated as the new administration sets its agenda.

In San Diego a reported 30,000 marched from downtown to the county administration building on the waterfront.

Do you wonder why so many marched? In this episode San Diegans who participated in the local march explain why they took to the streets in solidarity with so many others around the nation and the world. Some were first-time protestors – while others have been protesting since the 1970s.
