Annette, I enjoyed your essay as I always do. We marched too, last Saturday and in DC in 2017, and many times in between. As you observed, we do it for the community and so we can tell our grandkids we were not silent. On Saturday, we marched with two of those grandkids, a three year old and a five year old. My favorite sign from the No Kings march read, "Not a paid protestor, I hate him for free." Keep writing, keep marching, keep your spirits up.

I, too, marched in Cincinnati. A wonderfully exhilarating experience. I feel I left my voice which shouted out slogan after slogan, telling the city, Country and world that we are not content with the way things are going. That voice, mixed with the thousands, will resound for years to come. Now we all must keep the action going!
