Possibly the largest coordinated global protest in history, the Women's March was organized by a few women of color by the names of Tamika D. Mallory, Carmen Perez, and Linda Sarsour (a black woman, a Latina woman, and a Palestinian woman), and this is only the beginning.

"Women's March Global invites individuals and organizations committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion and those who understand women’s rights as human rights to join our local coalitions of marchers in representing the rights and voices of progressive people around the world."
