Women's March Oakland

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Celebrating its second-annual citywide mobilization, Women's March Oakland rally and march, in partnership with national youth organization March for Our Future, will take place on Saturday, January 20, 2018. Oakland joins 12 other California chapters in hosting rallies on the anniversary of the historic Women's March, which galvanized 5 million people globally for women's rights, human rights, social justice and civil liberties.

Since more than 100,000 women and their allies marched in Oakland for its inaugural January 21, 2017 gathering, Women's March Oakland has today amplified the work of aligned organizations, groups and projects across the greater East Bay. Kicking off 2018, the chapter's anniversary march will focus on voter education and participation as well as uplifting tomorrow's leaders, with the theme, "Hear Our Vote: March for Our Future."

The mission of Women's March Oakland is to harness the political power of diverse women and their communities in Oakland and the East Bay to create transformative social change. Women's March is a women-led movement providing intersectional education on a range of issues and creating entry points for new grassroots activists and organizers to engage in their local communities through trainings, outreach programs and events. Women's March is committed to dismantling systems of oppression through nonviolent resistance and building inclusive structures guided by self-determination, dignity and respect.

Women's March Oakland 2018 is a nonpartisan, peaceful event that will give people from across the East Bay and beyond the opportunity to activate their communities, engage and support youth, and publicly proclaim that women's rights are human rights and human rights are women's rights.
