18.01.20 Women's March on Augusta: Power to the Polls

Under sunny skies and mild winter temperatures, over 5,000 people attended the second Women's March on Augusta: Power to the Polls at the State Capitol building on January 20, 2018. Speaker Artist/Activist Robert Shetterly mixed it up backstage with the Statue of Liberty and Lady Justice. Event organizer Jennifer Jones introduced the speakers. After Penobscot activist/lawyer Sherri Mitchell, State Senator Shenna Bellows and others spoke to the gathering, the crowd marched around Capitol Park. There were enough marchers to make a U encircling the park.
This is what Democracy looks like!
