For the third year in a row, women across the world came out in the thousands Saturday to protest the Trump administration and to fight for women's rights.
Back then, it was organized in response to the incoming presidency of Donald Trump and yielded a global movement. On the day after his inauguration, crowds marched across the U.S. in the largest single-day protest in U.S. history.
Echoing 2017, this year’s formal main march was held in Washington, D.C., with more than 100 other marches planned for cities around the world.

In Europe, the protests kicked off early Saturday. Hundreds of Londoners took part in a Women Demand Bread & Roses protest, rallying in Trafalgar Square. In Berlin, women marched holding signs that said, My body, my rules.
In the U.S. Capital, pink pussy hats dotted the crowd, and thousands of protesters held up signs protesting Trump while others held signs in support of transgender rights, reproductive rights and gun control. Protestors also invoked Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and signs that read: “Believe survivors.”
For months, women who had previously participated in the marches exchanged text messages and Facebook posts about whether one of the founders of the movement was anti-Semitic. In the week leading up to the event, the march drew as much attention for controversial comments made by the organizers as the upcoming event itself.

Though the conversation has been ongoing for the past year, the allegations were formalized in an article in the online Jewish magazine Tablet.
On Monday, two of the march's organizers appeared on The View, fueling the controversy. Co-president Tamika Mallory defended her relationship with Louis Farrakhan, the head of the Nation of Islam, who has long fielded charges of anti-Semitism.
“As a leader, as a black leader in a country that is still dealing with some very serious unresolved issues as it relates to the black experience in this country, I go into a lot of difficult spaces, ” Mallory said on the show. “Wherever my people are, there that’s where I must also be.”

Linda Sarsour and Tamika Mallory, two of the organisers of the Women's March, walk together on Pennsylvania Avenue during the third annual Women's March in Washington, Jan. 19, 2019.
By Saturday afternoon, Mallory appeared to throw out an all-inclusive olive leaf to the crowd, as she had recently drawn criticism for remarks and affiliations that some called anti-Semitic.
To all my sisters, I see you. To my Muslim sisters, I see you. To my Latina sisters, I see you. To my Asian sisters, I see you. To my Jewish sisters, I see all of you. I see your pain. And to my black sisters, I SEE YOU!” Mallory said to the thousands of women and supporters gathered on the National Mall.

I will make this very clear. We know there is no room for anti-Semitism anywhere in our movement. We know this. We know that our movement is empowered when all of us lift each other. Gillibrand said.
It is so incredibly important to uplift all of our voices. And to make sure the least among us advocated the most. That means we will not be quiet when it comes to the rights of black women. That means we will not be quiet when it comes to the rights of trans women. That means we will not be quiet when it comes to the rights of poor women. And middle-class women. And working-class women. And all women in the United States and in the world, she said.
“Last year we brought the power to the polls, and this year we need to make sure we translate that power into policy, ” Ocasio-Cortez added. “That means we will not let anyone take our rights away. In fact, we will expand them.”

In Texas, women took to the streets in temperatures that dipped into the 30s. Sandra Parker, a 59-year old retired air traffic controller, headed to Denton for her third Women's March. As a child of government workers with many family members still in public service, the stalemate in Washington is cause enough for protest.
Our country is a joke. Women are not taken seriously and called hysterical or ‘bitch’ if they are as forceful as a man. Strong women are not silent.
