Hundreds of thousands of women (and men!) will march in Washington, DC tomorrow to protest the Trump administration’s stances on numerous civil rights issues.
In light of the obvious logistical hurdles for an event
that large, the march now has an official app that’s vital for
organization and live updates. The app has information about the day’s
scheduled speakers, the march route, transportation, accessibility
concerns, and safety, as well as an Instagram-inspired feed where
marchers are sharing photo dispatches from their travels.
Most of the information is available on the Women’s March website,
but the app will be used to send out logistics updates throughout the
weekend and to notify participants of meet-and-greats and sign-making
events throughout the city. You’ll need to create a profile to use the
app — the simplest way is to link the account to your LinkedIn. And who
knows: maybe you can be a bodily reminder of the fact that the GOP has
no popular mandate to restrict women’s reproductive options / health
care and do some networking at the same time.
If you’re still deliberating on the perfect sign slogan,
scrolling through the feed might be helpful. The best one I saw in a
cursory scroll was “WTF.”
The Women’s March on Washington app is a free download on iOS and Android.
