Thousands took to the the streets of Washington, D.C., Saturday as part of a “Women’s Wave.” Organized by the Women’s March, the event was the third annual mass march the national organization has hosted since their first —held the day after President Donald Trump’s inauguration — rose to international acclaim.

While fewer gathered in the nation’s capitol than in previous iterations of the march, the 2019 demonstrators continued in the tradition of waving provocative signs as they passed the Trump Hotel while chanting, “This is what democracy looks like!”

Sojourners was there to ask attendees what prompted them to join this year’s march. This is what they said.
