WOAH WOAH WOAH
The media is WAY underplaying the women’s march in DC. there are OVER A MILLION PEOPLE. Not “around half a million.” OVER A MILLION.
It’s amazing. Chanting “Black lives matter” and “my body my choice” and “lgbtq and e; we just want equality.” Over a million people shoulder to shoulder with signs and anger channeled into action. THAT’S what the march was.
I talked to a police officer in DC today who said that there were about 1.6 million people. A guy who’s lived in DC for twenty years said that this was bigger than any Independence Day celebration he’s seen, which usually reach about a million.
Don’t let the news tell you that there are only 500k people (which would be impressive in itself). There are at least twice that.
