Dont be jaded. Watch Good Girls Revolt instead.

A little over two months ago an estimated 4,600,000 people marched for womens rights. Women and men peacefully assembled and protested inequality. Its been two months of opposition. Two months of phone calls to our Senators. Two months of the #resistance. And Im afraid to tell you, friends, it seems as though we are losing steam. But I beg you not to. Do not slow down. Do not back away. We need to keep resisting .

Reminder: None of this is normal.

Recently, President Trump signed an executive order revoking President Obamas Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces executive order. President Obamas order required paycheck transparency and banned forced arbitration clauses for sexual harassment, sexual assault, or discrimination. This is important.

A few months ago, President Trump reinstated and expanded the global gag rule . This executive order cuts $9.5 billion from organizations that provide AIDS and malaria treatment and care, as well as maternal and child care. This is important.

And then, we are constantly subjected to the everlasting debate about what women can and cannot do with their own bodies. Just last year, our VP Mike Pence signed a law that requires women seeking an abortion to get an ultrasound at least 18 hours before the procedure. And a quick Google search for abortion laws yields a plethora of terrifying results. New, dangerous anti-abortion laws are signed weekly. This is important and alarming.

When two months ago both men and women criticized those of us who marched for doing so without a purpose, I understood. I understood why so many were confused by the March. I understood; I did not agree.

We marched not only because our equality is a simple mirage , but because we sensed what was coming. We knew the future, because we remembered the past. You see, we actually listened to the campaign promises . We took them as truths. We did not go into this presidency full of hope, but instead full of fear and uncertainty.

And here we are, watching it all unravel. Watching our country rapidly move backwards. Watching our rights vanish. Who needs laws protecting women in the workplace anyway? Remember when so many cried it is illegal to discriminate against women in the workplace; hence there is no need to march for such nonsense? Thanks to President Trump, the line between what is and isnt legal is starting to blur, with a few strokes of his pen.
