Call for SF Bay Area Women’s March Disability Stories

Share your SF Bay Area Women’s March stories on January 20th!

Are you a disabled person attending the Women’s March in Oakland or SF? Are you a disabled person who can’t attend but want to participate online?

Post your messages, videos, selfies, tweets about what issues you care about and why protests, in person and online, are important in these times.

This is an effort by Yomi Wrong, Ingrid Tischer, and Alice Wong to amplify the voices of the SF Bay Area disability community. We are not affiliated with the organizers of either Women’s Marches in Oakland and San Francisco or the online Disability March.
