March for Our Future

Past event
Jan 20, 2018, 1 PM

All over the country, this Saturday, there will be Women's March Anniversary events. Here at home, the Vermont Women's March is supporting and partnering with the March for Our Future - a youth-lead and youth-centered event.

Saturday, January 20, 1:00
March from City Hall to the Statehouse for a rally and speak out.
The youth-only line up of speakers and performers include A2VT, Muslim Girls Making Change, and young people from Rutland, Brattleboro, Montpelier, Burlington, Richmond, and more.

Here is a message from Kiran Waqar, a SBHS student, march organizer, and member of Muslim Girls Making Change: "Youth are aware of what’s happening, but often lack an outlet and political efficacy to believe they can make a difference in their community or government. It’s time to abolish the notion that a person needs to have a college degree or be above the age of 30 to have an effect.”

The Peace & Justice Center has been supporting the organizing of this event. It's supposed to be 41 degrees and partially sunny on Saturday! Wahoooo! Hope to see you there.
