All over the country this weekend, 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-led and youth-centered event.

Saturday, January 20, 1:00 PM in Montpelier
March from the Montpelier City Hall to the Statehouse for a rally and speak out.
The youth-only line up of speakers and performers include Muslim Girls Making Change, A2VT, and young people from Rutland, Brattleboro, Montpelier, Richmond, Burlington (including my grandson, Ira!), 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 the 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."
