Women's marches around the world bring a million people together

Hundreds of women’s marches worldwide sent more than one million people into the streets of not just familiar U.S. cities like Chicago, New York, Denver and Philadelphia, but also London, Madrid, Paris, Rome and others in protest of what they fear President Trump’s policies could mean for their lives.

“Love not hate makes America great,” marchers chanted in Denver, a line that echoed to Utah, where actress Charlize Theron led the chant for demonstrators in Park City.

In Chicago, organizers expected 22,000 people, but got 250,000 — prompting coordinators to cancel the march portion of the event, though thousands didn’t get the news and still peacefully walked the Loop.

“Michigan Avenue is flooded with marchers,” organizer Liz Radford told the masses. “People are still waiting for trains in Oak Park. We called, and you came. We have flooded the march route. We have flooded Chicago.”

In New York, actresses Helen Mirren, Cynthia Nixon and Whoopi Goldberg joined a crowd of protesters marching to Trump’s local home.

“Too many women have gone too far to roll back time,” Goldberg told the crowd. “It’s never going to go back to what it was, so we are going to make sure what it is, we can make it better — and it doesn’t matter who is in charge.”

More than 600 “sister marches” were planned around the world. Organizers estimated last night that more than a million people marched worldwide.

Tens of thousands of protesters

squeezed into London’s Trafalgar Square. In Paris, thousands rallied in the Eiffel Tower neighborhood in a joyful atmosphere, singing and carrying posters reading, “We have our eyes on you Mr. Trump” and “With our sisters in Washington.” Hundreds of others gathered in Prague’s Wenceslas Square in freezing weather, mockingly waving portraits of Trump and Russia’s Vladimir Putin. In Sydney, thousands of Australians gathered in solidarity in Hyde Park, where one organizer said hatred, bigotry and racism are not only America’s problems.
