Show Notes

“The Tucson women’s march was a part of a nation-wide and global movement for believers in equality to stand together in solidarity the day after Donald Trump was sworn in as the 45th president of the United States. The movement itself was not anti-Trump but rather a non-partisan pro-equality demonstration intended to show the world that we stand together for the protection of our rights, our safety, our health, our families, and our environment.” – Gabriella Cazares-Kelly

Many groups were represented during the Women’s March on Washington and amongst the thousands was a group of indigenous women who represented their cultures and marched for equality! Gabriella Cazares-Kelly was one of many who marched unitedly with numerous women of color during this time. She helped organize the “Indigenous Women for Equality” which is a group of indigenous women and their supporter’s in the Tucson/Tohono O’odham Nation area who simply believe in equality. Here you will listen to a discussion with Gabriella and her role in the midst of this historical march.
