Today, Wednesday, March 8th is International Women’s Day!
In recognition of the important roles of women in history and present day, students are called to a day of action to support intersectional women’s rights. From 1-3 pm, there will be a student rally outside of the Coffman Union on the U of M Campus. The rally will focus on four demands: The United Struggle Against Trump and Right-Wing Attacks, Economic Justice, Fighting Misogyny in All Forms, and Autonomy Over All Bodies. Several students and local leaders will be speaking, including some Augsburg students.
Students for Racial Justice will lead a group to the rally, and will meet at 12:30 pm in the quad. Anyone in support of equality and representation of all women is welcome to attend (students or otherwise)!
