Specific about where in that place we'd be.
Was going to wear a white tee saying "the future is female"
Also if anyone wanted to exchange cell numbers by PM that's cool by me.
Let's stop back here all week to check out who's coming and figure out the when (am guessing it should be over 4-5pm) and keep this kicked for visibility.

Looking forward to meeting you!

Domestic terrorist James O'Keefe is trolling the Women's March looking for victims. KEEP YOUR DATA SAFE.

Be careful out there.

Most people who have been active with reproductive rights are aware because this shits been going on for years. Good info for newcomers.
This is planned to be a peaceful protest - organizers are even warning sign makers to remember there will be lots of kids there too!- but I do know some alt-lefties encouraging people to engage in illegal shit. They're missing the point of this march completely.
