On International Women's Day, thousands gathered in downtown Los Angeles to advocate for women's rights, emphasizing that equality has yet to be achieved. Emiliana Guereca, of the Women's March Foundation, highlighted that many rights have been lost rather than gained under the Trump administration's policies. The event, which started in 2017, saw an estimated 15,000 participants this year, many being young and new to activism. The focus remains on educating future generations about the importance of fighting for women's rights.
"For us, the main focus is making that sure that women understand that we are not equal yet. We have lost rights instead of gaining rights."
"We have lost rights instead of gaining rights, particularly with actions against healthcare, voting access, and diversity initiatives under the Trump administration."
"The march, created in 2017, drew 750,000 attendees, but this year's estimated 15,000 showed a mix of new voices joining the cause."
"Our fight is for those generations, emphasizing the need for continued advocacy to protect and expand women's rights worldwide."
