I feel so full of love today as I scroll through photos from the numerous Women's Marches happening around the world this afternoon. It is so comforting knowing that you are a part of something so much bigger than yourself, so much bigger and more important than any force of hatred, leader, or government. I feel so connected today.
Although I sadly didn't make it out to my city's march, I stand in solidarity with all the women, men, and children who are out there, as well as those across the globe who are using their voices and power to spark change. I never want any woman to feel silenced again. My feminism stands for women of all colours, ages, sizes, and sexualities. It stands for men who have been oppressed by the patriarchy for not fitting the societal mould. And it stands for everyone in between. We will not settle. We will not turn a blind eye to injustices. We will not back down. We will not lower our voices. We are feminists. If you knew the real definition of that, you'd probably be one, too. C "When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."
