I was at the Women’s March on Washington this morning for a few hours, got to see Representatives Don Beyer (D-VA 8th) and Gerry Connolly (D-VA 11th) speak, as well as Delegates Mark Levine (D-Alexandria, Arlington) and Kathleen Murphy (D-McLean). Check out photos (most by me but some by others, like great Virginia Dems Susan Mariner, Del. Jennifer Boysko and Del. Eileen Filler-Corn) and videos below. The focus here isn’t specifically on Virginia, more to get a feel for the huge crowd, the creative signs, the diversity of perspectives on why Trump sucks and why everyone who cares about…well, just about anything, including democracy, climate, women’s reproductive freedom, LGBT equality, you name it…needs to unite against him. With that, here are some photos and videos from this morning.
