Women's March San Francisco #HearOurVote

On January 20, 2018, Women's March San Francisco will unite along with multiple other cities in California, nationally and internationally to reaffirm our commitment to building a positive and just future for all, and to celebrate the spirit of resistance efforts over the past year. This rally and march is designed to engage and empower all people to support Women's rights, Human Rights, Civil Rights, Disability Rights, LGBTQIA Rights, Workers Rights, Immigrant Rights, Reproductive Rights, Indigenous People's Rights, Social and Environmental Justice, and Tenant’s Rights. Our feminism must be intersectional and we must continue to organize as such. 

HEAR OUR VOTE! First we Marched and Now we Run!

WHEN? 
Saturday, January 20, 2018 at 11:30 AM at Civic Center | San Francisco. Rally at 12 PM and then March at 2 PM down Market Street to the Embarcadero (1.7 miles )

WHY?
With a focus on the importance of elections, "Hear Our Vote" is the theme for Women’s March California in 2018, and centers on five levels of action:
* Organize 
* Register to Vote
* Vote 
* Run for office, especially women of color
* Elect progressive women & allies
Only 54 percent of women in California are registered to vote, which is in the bottom third of U.S. states) and of that group only 45 percent turned out to vote in the 2016 election.

The January 20, 2018 march in San Francisco will be one part of many worldwide weekend events honoring the movement that brought out 5 million marchers on January 21, 2017, in what is considered the largest single-day demonstration in U.S. history.
