Text on sign reads: "Haida Tsimshian Nation" [with large butterfly in Haida style] PH Coll 1467.KinseyK490 The 2018 Women’s March on Seattle (also written Womxn’s March) took place on Saturday, January 20, 2018, on the one year anniversary of President Donald Trump’s inauguration. The march began at Cal Anderson Park, where a pre-march rally opened with prayers from members of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women group, who led the march, and speeches by current and former elected officials, including Mayor Jenny Durkan. The march proceeded west on Pine Street and north on Fourth Avenue, ending at Seattle Center. Tens of thousands of demonstrators participated in Seattle, while hundreds of thousands of people demonstrated throughout the United States and in other countries. On Sunday, January 21, organizers of the march created Womxn ACT on Seattle, designed to be “a day of action, not just demonstration" (Seattle Womxn Marching Forward, http://www.seattlewomxnmarchingforward.org/). Events included voter registration, panel discussions, trainings, and various drives for charity.
