500 participants Women’s March: ‘Not everyone is the same’

But women’s rights are also still widely discussed. According to Anja Meulenbelt, introduced on stage as ‘a feminist for over half a century’, there is still a lot to be gained. “Women are no longer fired when they have children, violence is taken seriously, women in principle have all rights. It is no longer expected that they are only in the kitchen. But that does not mean that everything is in order now. Half of the women are still unable to make a living from their own work and violence still exists, even though we are talking about it.

Other countries

The Women’s March is also organized in other countries, from Mexico to Pakistan. The first meeting was in 2017, as a protest against then President Donald Trump. In that year, more than three million people walked in the US. In the years that followed, there were fewer, but still hundreds of thousands. The marches take place in dozens of cities around the world.

The Dutch branch is quitting her website to draw attention this year to ‘fundamental issues’, such as violence against women, economic inequality, rights for women with disabilities, an inequitable education system and unequal representation in the media and politics.
