#Belarus How powerful these women are. They are chanting: This is our city while holding banners Fight like a girl and Belarussy Riot". The mood has changed. These are peaceful protesters, but they are becoming more defiant, consolidated, more ready to send stronger messages

Thats how female protesters greeted one of the most courageous women in #Belarus,Nina Bahinskaya,at the march. Thousands of women are rallying now in the city centre of #Minsk. A @dw_russian journalist Pauluk Bykouski has been
detained a moment ago and taken to a police
station

Powerful. The fearless women of #Belarus are chanting "You are someone's children" and "Where is your mom?" in front of riot police officers who blocked them
#Belarus. One of the most powerful moments of today's Women's March. Riot police are trying to stop and block women, they are chanting, "We are the power!" And look at how a man approached an officer, and the women immediately came to them and hugged the man to protect him

It always seems to be the women who are the most brave in the face of authoritarianism and fascism. Where are the men?
