The March.
Mobilizing self-identified women and their communities to achieve transformative social change in Oakland and the East Bay.
What is the march?
Our annual march is a nonpartisan, peaceful event that mobilizes self-identified women and their communities to achieve transformative social change in Oakland and the East Bay.
ORIGIN of the march
On January 21, 2017, more than 100,000 women and their allies marched in Oakland, part of a global mobilization of 5 million people for women’s rights, human rights, social justice and civil liberties.
That day sparked a movement that has galvanized the nation, harnessing the political power of diverse women and their communities to create transformative social change.
Oakland marchers have made our voices heard in town halls and state capitals, down the street, and across the internet.
Past marches
This is what democracy looks like. "We really just want to come out here so people can have their voices heard."
