FIRST WE MARCHED. NOW WE ACT.
On January 21, 2018, the one-year anniversary of the largest political protest in recent U.S. history, Women’s March Florida will lead a statewide “Women's Day of Action” to bring awareness and support to some of our most marginalized communities. We'll be raising funds for our nearby sister islands that were affected this hurricane season; Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the Florida Keys, as well as focus on expanding voter access and registration, a crucial step towards meaningful change.
Please join us for a rally for liberation! Liberation for our sister islands, voter restoration, voter mobilization, and liberation for all our oppressed communities. None of us is free until all of us are free!
