I'M NOT A WOMAN, AM I INVITED?
Yes, the March for Black Women is for any person and #EveryBlackWoman regardless of gender, sexuality or gender identity who believe the world is listening and watching, and that Black women should and must be seen. If you are witness to the complex ways racialized/sexualized violence and discrimination impact Black women while subsequently devastating generations of Black children, then join us in DC to and fight for liberation from imperialist, white supremacist patriarchy. March with us.
WILL IT BE SAFE? CAN I BRING MY KIDS?
The decision to bring your children is a personal one. The M4BW has a team of experienced and professional national organizers working to ensure that every safety protocol is followed. We will release specific details on how to stay safe during your time in Washington as we draw closer to the date. The decision to bring your children is a personal one.
I WANT MY ORGANIZATION TO BE INVOLVED. HOW CAN WE JOIN THE MOBILIZATION?

WILL THE M4BW BE ACCESSIBLE FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES?
