JOIN the LA Women's March on January 20!

  




Please join CWLC in Los Angeles on Saturday, January 20th for the 2018 L.A. Women's March. By doing so, you will join thousands of women who are participating in hundreds of marches across the country who are advocating for equality and fairness. 

Together with Ms. and the Feminist Majority Foundation, CWLC will be meeting at 7:00a and 7:30a in the lobby of the Millennium Biltmore Hotel (at the corner of South Grand Avenue and West 5th Street) for a quick briefing on the day's plans. The rest of our delegation will start to arrive at 8:00a, before heading to the 9:00a kick-off rally at Pershing Square. 
We highly recommend taking mass transit, as traffic and parking is expected to be difficult. To get to our meet-up location, you can take the Metro Red Line to the 7th Street/Metro Center Station (about four blocks from the Biltmore). After the March, you can hop back on the Red Line at the Civic Center/Grand Park Station.
 
Click here to RSVP for our LA Women's March delegation. If you can't join us in downtown Los Angeles, there are other Women's Marches taking place in Orange County and the San Fernando Valley. To find marchers near you, join the Ms. Marches community on Facebook.

We knew going into 2017 that we would face challenges and, in fact, the year turned into an incredibly empowering one starting with the Women's Marches taking place around the world in January to the recent explosion of the #MeToo movement. Feminists have amplified our voices and embraced our momentum, declaring with full force that women will not be silenced, and we will not go back.

We need you to be with us on January 20!
 
Wear comfortable shoes and bring your most expressive signs.
