The pandemic forced the Sacramento women’s march to look a little different this year. Participants are invited to join a caravan around the state Capitol and listen to speakers virtually. A permit for personal gathering has been denied, but organizers say now is not a time for complacency. This does not mean that we have equal wages. This does not mean that we have racial justice for all. This does not mean that the indigenous people have their rights. “Or climate justice,” said Scarlett Bustos of Women’s Marsh Sacramento. And so we have speakers who are leaders in Sacramento and the surrounding community and they are calling to action. ”
The pandemic forced the Sacramento women’s march to look a little different this year.
Participants are invited to join a caravan around the state Capitol and listen to speakers virtually.
Permission to demonstrate in person was denied, but organizers say now is not a time for complacency.
Just because there is a new presidential administration, it does not mean that women have equity. This does not mean that we have equal wages. This does not mean that we have racial justice for all. This does not mean that the indigenous people have their rights. “Or Climate Justice,” said Scarlett Bustos of Women’s Marsh Sacramento.
“All of these things are women’s issues,” she said. “And so we have speaker speakers in Sacramento and the surrounding community who are calling out calls to action.”
The event leaders posted those words on their Facebook page The Sacramento Women’s March.
