Women`s March & Protest against Donald Trump in Washington DC
One day after the swearing in of Donald Trump as the new US President,many women,men,children and others including lesbians,homosexuals to mention but a few came out in their large numbers almost half a million to protest and fight for their rights.I interviewed some of them and their principal objectives are to fight for equal rights for women and men,freedom of expressions and protest against Donald Trump whom they considered a fascist.Most of the protesters wore pink hoods representing the “women`s vagina” and they carried many posters and banners showing their greatest hatred and dislike of President Trump.The March was very peaceful all around the national mall and some even went as far as displaying posters and banners at Metro stations like Metro Center and Federal Triangle showing their support for Obamacare,Hillary Clinton and their dislike for even Fox news.The movements on and around Washington DC Metro was very busy and according to the Metro authorities,there were more than 1 million people that used the system on the 21 of January 2017.It is worth mentioning that there were some Trump supporters during the march and others who just came to march in favor of the women`s right and not against Trump and it wasn`t only in Washington DC but all over US and the some few other countries like Brazil,England,France etc.
