NW Okie's Journey
The 45th President swore an oath on the bible when he was inaugurated to uphold the US Constitution, his "highest priority." So far he as violated several of the US Constitutions amendments with his Executive Orders (EO). Our Founding Fathers are weeping and turning over in their grave.

Why I March with Women's Movement
To those whom are confused or surprised about why millions of people showed up to protest Saturday. . .
- "Women are marching because our children deserve a secretary of education that cares about education."
- "Women are marching because our family and friends deserve healthcare. Did you know that before the ACA, newborns in the NICU would hit their lifetime caps on health insurance coverage. That's right, Babies who had never felt the sun on their skin could no longer get health insurance."
- "Women are marching because domestic violence crisis centers and after school programs deserve funding."
- "Women are marching because we deserve clean air, clean water, and national parks."
- "Women are marching because we believe the children protected by the DREAM act deserve to be here and they deserve to live with their parents, not in orphanages and foster homes."
- "And most of all, women are marching because we have the right to. The right to protest and speak out against our government is the first amendment (Freedom of Speech). That's right, #1! It is one of our most fundamental American rights."
- "Saying that we are whining, throwing temper tantrums, or that we are immature, or that we need to get over it will not stop us. It will not stop us from fighting for you. And we are fighting for you because you deserve these rights too."
- "We're not marching because Trump won."
- "We're marching because Trump wants to take all of the things that we hold dear away. All of the things that we've been fighting for for generations."
- "And we are not giving up easily."
- "Anyone who thinks we're marching because we lost just simply isn't listening. We're fighting because we refuse to loose more."
The Women’s March on Washington far exceeded our dreams. About 1.2 million people gathered in Washington, D.C. and another 3 million gathered in cities and towns across our nation, making the Women's March the largest mass demonstration in U.S. history. With 5 million people marching globally, January 21st was likely the largest coordinated global protest in world history!
Don’t Stop Now! Let’s Keep this Women’s Movement going!
That is why we are dedicating this weeks OkieLegacy Ezine/Tabloid to the Women Suffrages, who marched for our freedom's.
