Sacramento #WomensMarch, sister March to Women's March on Washington, at California State Capitol

1/21/2017

0 Comments

 
Today I made my way into Sacramento for the Women's March, one of many around the nation that were sister marches to the one in Washington D.C. While I missed the march proper, I arrived to see the tail end arriving at the state Capitol's west steps. Pink pussy hats, part of the Pussy Hat Project, were in abundance, and umbrellas-as-protest-signs were also a popular motif given the drizzly, overcast weather in the greater Sacramento area recently.

A stage was set up at the Capitol's west steps, with attendees lining the sidewalks and down the Capitol Mall. Speakers ranged from politicians and local organizers, to artists, comedians, and activists.

Between roughly 12pm and 1pm marchers lined the Capitol mall almost all the way back to the Tower Bridge, with rally attendees milling the capitol mall throughout much of  the speaker schedule.
