Audrey and I created some impromptu posters, hopped on the #54 bus, and joined the Washington DC Women’s March. We were protesting the Supreme Court’s draft decision to overturn Roe v Wade. Lots of people asked to take a photo of Audrey’s poster: “if men could get pregnant, abortions would be available at ATMs.”
The weather was misty, but warm, so we didn’t mind getting wet. The rally started on a lawn just below the Washington Monument. The featured speaker was California congresswoman Barbara Lee. After lots of speeches, it was time to march!
About 20,000 people slowly ambled up Constitution Ave. We walked pasted the National Gallery, then past the US Capitol, and finally past the Supreme Court. The crowd was well-behaved and we enjoyed joining in the chants.
After passing the Supreme Court, we were tired of being in such a huge, loud crowd. We headed to the metro and made our way home.
