The Women's March was a revolutionary form of protest where peaceful demonstrations took place across all seven continents (yes, even Antarctica). But we cannot stop with a single day or single weekend. Change starts with an individual and here are everyday actions one person can do help keep the momentum of change going.

1. Stay Informed

We live in a digital age where we get severe weather alerts sent to our phone, connect with people around the world and have access to an infinite amount of information, but we often take this for granted to look at funny Youtube videos of cats or post photos of ourselves doing exciting things to prove that we have an exciting life. Use this connection to the world to see what is going on, educate yourself on the issues and find out how it affects everyone--not just yourself or your community.

2. Let your local representative know where you stand on issues.

Their role is to represent people in their district. You can call their local office and ask that your stance as their constituent be noted. You can also email them. Get involved with local issues too.

3. Know what your representatives are doing.

The media doesn't report on every single thing that every single representative does, but you can look up how they voted and what legislation they are sponsoring from websites like this.

4. Know what local businesses stand for

Many places have LGBT yellow pages that feature businesses who are a no discrimination, safe space for everyone. If there is a local coffee shop, try going there more. Find out which businesses have been under fire for discrimination and avoid those places as much as possible.

FDA, the EPA, NASA, Forest Services, the HHS and the USDA. (And this list is constantly growing!) This is a huge statement that says "We will not be silent" and that the truth matters more than the legal barriers preventing the public from knowing it.
