16 Tweets From The #WomensMarch2018 That Show The Resistance Is Here To Stay

Frustrated with the Trump administration and fired up by the #MeToo movement, scores of women's rights advocates took to the streets on Saturday to march in honor of the one-year anniversary of the Women's March on Washington. And these tweets from #WomensMarch2018 showed those who participated in the largest single-day march in U.S. history last year had a message for President Trump: The resistance is persistent.

While organizers behind the original Women's March have opted to mark the one-year anniversary by hosting a mass mobilization and voter registration event in place of a march, local chapters organized marches in cities around the world. Protesters will march in Austin, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York City, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., as well as cities across Europe, Asia, Australia, South America, and Africa. A full list of Women's March 2018 events can be found here.

This year's Women's March comes on the heels of a government shutdown after Republican leaders in the Senate failed to muster the 60 votes necessary to advance a stopgap spending measure. The Women's March 2018 also comes a day after President Trump addressed anti-abortion activists at a March for Life rally.
