View Full Version : Protest planned, heads up
Friday starting at 9am until 11:30am an inauguration protest is scheduled at the Capital. If you have to be in downtown Denver be careful. Maybe it'll snow and keep the real trouble makers away.

The "I didn't get my way crowd" protesting the republic that keeps them free. Perfect.
Yup, snow for the snowflakes if we're lucky.
Thanks for the heads up. I'll be in several different parts of Denver all day tomorrow, but I don't expect to see anything.

I've got no problems with protests as long as they keep it legitimate, ie., non-violent and non-destructive. I never put it on my truck but I made a sign protesting Obama's re-election because I felt it was a sign of the death of the Constitution and indeed the country. I think the Dems who are protesting today have less knowledge and appreciation for the actual history and heritage of the USA but I respect their right to protest.
As far as the twerps who would get violent or destroy property ... just book 'em and lock 'em up.
Hand out job applications, they'll start moving.

Nice, I needed a good laugh this morning.
It's nice that the downtrodden oppressed Libs are able to protest on a workday.
We had to do our protesting on the gun laws on the weekend.
Footage from the Washington protests is pretty entertaining. They're getting REAL liberal with the spray.

12:17 p.m. - So far, three people have been arrested: One person had an active warrant, another was arrested for an assault to a police officer and a third was in possession of an illegal weapon, according to a spokesperson from the Denver Police Department.

Let's see ... their candidate left Americans hung out to dry with inadequate defenses in Syria of all freaking places, committed tax fraud with a "charity" that used about 10-20% of its donations for charitable purposes, had her aides send her classified information on unclassified email, used a private email server for official business in violation of official policy and regulations (which she disciplined and even fired others for), and paid people to commit incite riot and violence but they're worried about Trump eating pizza with a fork?

These are the people that vote against us every election. Nothing new here.
They are mostly white women. Many probably transplants. It's the exact same demo that wants social programs and gun control.
With the way the media has behaved I'm surprised it's only 200K. You'd think Trump was going to open up concentration camps any day now.

It's part of the grieving process. As there are so many of these special snowflakes, and each one is different (that's what makes 'em special), not all of them are in the same place. But I figure for most of them, this is the "depression, reflection, loneliness" stage. There are many still who have not progressed to that stage yet and are still in the "anger and loneliness" part of the process.
Huh. That's a lot of angry women. You would think Trump had invited thousands if Islamic terrorists to come across our boarders who hate women, and want to rape them and take all their rights and freedoms away.

Could be more, sure. I was never good at crowd estimation from cropped photos though. But make no mistake, this and other marches were just as much fabricated by leftist money as all the other ones. This march was branded about women (which is pretty friggin' vague), but it's really a leftist (read: culturally marxist) march like all the other ones designed to further an agenda.
Here's their mission statement:
The Women’s March On Denver Mission Statement
Because we CARE, on January 21, 2017 we will stand together to tell the nation and the administration-elect that:
1) All women shall maintain the freedom and lawful protection to choose what is best for them as it concerns their biological and reproductive health.
2) The diverse and vibrant communities of the United States of America shall be protected from political factions that would seek to inhibit their expression and existence by implementing legal restrictions on personal freedoms. These diverse and vibrant communities are the fabric of our great country and shall not be torn by hateful, divisive, and racist rhetoric or actions.
3) All people, regardless of gender, gender identification, ethnicity, racial heritage, disability, religion, age, sexual orientation and/or socioeconomic status shall be treated equally and equitably, with respect, dignity and justice for all.
By bringing thousands of people together online and in person at Denver’s Civic Center Park, we strive to provide an outlet and support for those who wish to:
1) Advocate for and defend the most marginalized members of our society.
2) Connect with like-minded individuals and organizations within local Colorado communities.
3) Serve as a model of peaceful demonstration for the young women and men, and girls and boys, who will be the leaders of tomorrow.
4) Honor the women and men who have come before us and fought for human and women’s rights.
Our Vision Statement
We are all relevant, we are all valued, and we are more powerful together.
Our Message
This march is not a protest, but rather an opportunity for all participants to support social justice, human rights and equality, and to demonstrate that we will be vigilant in protecting these rights moving forward.
http://www.marchoncolorado.org/home/missionstatement
Here's their perpetually-kinetic end state goal:
The question keeps coming up - What's going to happen after the march?
Many of those involved as organizers and marchers are working on creating a solid community of people who are willing to stand up and work vigilantly for the protection and expansion of human rights. Our vision for the future of our movement is blurry...but we do have a vision.
We will be focusing on connecting people with the organizations and opportunities that allow them to be a force for change in areas that are important to them while also mobilizing everyday folks to take part in the legislative process in ways that further our cause of social justice and human rights.
How this will manifest is highly dependent on the people who decide to let their voice be heard beyond January 21st. Right now we are focused on the march and rally, BUT we are connecting with one another on social media through our MarchonColorado.org group that we established in an effort to maintain the phenomenal positive and determinded energy that has arose out of the marches.
If you are interested in being a part of our movement going forward, please email us at marchondenver@gmail.com, with MOVING FORWARD in the subject line.

Are you familiar with Saul Alinsky's methods? If so, you'd be able to see his methods at work in plain English, hidden in plain sight behind seemingly innocuous phrases. Make no mistake, this is not organic. If someone were to be able to do the digging (which would require infiltrating the group) they would find the same things I found when I participated in similar actions against the war in Iraq via IVAW after my first tour, my second tour, and after I was med retired: when I got to know the main players more it became apparent the IVAW wasn't really about ending the war per se, but was really furthering a leftist agenda (and funded by leftist money, run by legit Marxists).
It's nothing more than an apparent force multiplier for the left. It has nothing to do with Trump's one-time comment about women.
I've never watched Better Call Saul, so I'm not familiar with how he works.
What does cultural marxism mean? Oh, multiculturalism. God forbid we recognize that this country was built by more than just white men.
And really, you're going to call everyone that served but doesn't share your opinion of the war a shill?

cavsct, thanks for the quotes from that clown show.
In all honesty I don't think I've ever read anything more disjointed as a matter of goals and course than that. AMAZINGLY confused group of people. Sadly they've managed to motivate that many equally disturbed/discombobulated folks to go along with them. It's really a statement of exactly how ignorant and misguided a large portion of the public really is. These are the same type of people that were "just following orders" or "didn't know that was going on" in Nazi Germany and allow themselves to be lead around by the nose. If any of these idiots understood the functional roles in our government they'd be a hell of a lot more rational about the situation weather a trump supporter or not (obviously these are not).
I honestly thought that they weren't that numerous and that there was just a lot of party loyalists that put up the majority of the fight for the left the last 10 or so years, sadly I'm seeing I'm wrong in that, as anyone rational that just lost wouldn't be acting like this.

I've seen ads on CL for paid protestors before. Why is this so far-fetched?
What is multiculturalism to you, Ridge?
Is it oil and water somehow mixing, briefly, due to agitation? Or is it the appreciation of commonality and a recognition of the beauty of created persons in deference to their (so often denied) Creator?
Which white men? The Spaniards who assisted the Indians who built the San Miguel Mission in Santa Fe, at which I attended Christmas Day Mass with people of all colors -- a building built over a century before a bunch of Deistic Freemasons declared their freedom from an invalidated monarchy (cf. Belloc's "Characters of the Reformation")? Or the Indians too -- does their wholsesale adherence to a set of values invalidate their melanin; were they just a bunch of mission injuns (i.e., house ni...)?
What about the statue I have of the 1st century Israelite cousin of Christ, St. Jude? Not dark enough? Ok:
What about Julia Greeley? A woman whom I have yet the honor to meet, but I really truly hope I meet her one day, forever?
What about the mulatto, St. Martin de Porres, whose third-class relic I have on our home altar and to whom we pray for intercession nightly: is he a WASP because he'd despise the ruination of mankind into what Hilaire Belloc (an ethnic half-breed if there ever was one: French and English, ugh) described as the New Paganism?
Maybe John Levi from Louisiana... he and I see eye to eye (though he's likely about 10" taller than me); I'd stand with that man any day...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rF54I_hsV34
Or, going the way of distance ideological cousins, perhaps Mark Felder aka Bizzle....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvpxvEPwHmY
He'd not down with the program:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z03qZxqwB4c
And: where did I call anyone a shill? You mean the guys I met who were also definitely in (Geoff Millard, Garrett Reppenhagen, Jeff Englehart, etc.) but were trying to recruit folks into a Marxist movement with ending the war in Iraq as a vehicle to do so, using the same methods Alinsky described in Reveille for Radicals (not to be confused with Rules for Radicals -- yeah, I read both)? They weren't just shills, they were true believers. They were also too stoned and reactionary to have raised the money themselves. Just go over to thisainthell and use their search for Iraq Veterans Against the War. First result is about Mike Prysner, a communist.
I was into that whole scene and even wore my IVAW shirt to see a buddy off to Afghanistan:
http://i67.tinypic.com/2w57ssm.png
So please don't tell me I'm making stuff up -- I knew those guys and what they were and assumedly are about.
As for Saul Alinsky, here's a primer:
http://www.vcn.bc.ca/citizens-handbook/rules.html
There's a ton of info out there on him and his methods and students (cough, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, cough)

DelFuego, I don't watch Fox... it's too left for me. We do have a "TV" but it's really just a glorified computer monitor which enables us to watch DVDs and my son to watch Peppa Pig and Thomas the Train on YouTube.
But you misunderstand if you think I'm saying that every single person there is some sort of plant. Not the case at all, and that's what makes it so frustrating and sad. The people there are most often there thinking that their personal reason for being there is somehow connected to the reality of the organizers. That's simply untrue. When I hung out at the Occupy COS demonstration (pathetic as it was), I met a lot of really kind people. They simply did not understand the machinations turning the gears behind that movement as a whole. It was a protest buffet: Support Palestine, Down with the 1% (whatever and whomever that is), Earth First, etc.; they didn't realize it was a movement funded by Marxists insofar as the propaganda impetus, the initiation of the movement, etc.
They were very useful idiots.
Now that your acquaintance and all the others have provided legitimacy to this "womens" movement, they have done the majority of their job.
Questions: Do you think the money from SEIU, Soros, etc. just funds cancer research and pictures of fluffy bunnies in flowering fields for office wall pics? Do you think that, even if this were an organic protest, that the string pullers of social chaos won't co-opt it? Do you think any movement with political clout really gets off the ground on its own?

Hilaire Belloc - https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems-and-poets/poets/detail/hilaire-belloc I disagree with his sentiments about Jews, being jealous of successful people is never pretty and there are plenty of Jews who aren't millionaires and "rule the financial world".
Geoff Millard - http://thisainthell.us/blog/?p=5858

Anyone who hasn't been dead for the last 8 years should know who Saul Alinsky is.

I know there are still great women in America. I have the privilege of knowing many. But I can't help but wonder if these women are being useful. It would seem there is an alliance to destroy America and they have found our weakest link in our weakest people; Liberal women.
I look at Europe and see the same thing happening here with the same "partnership" that some will readily dismiss. Sweden was the Feminist capital of Europe and is now also the rape capital. The situation there is so bad their LE dare not tread into certain areas. Swedish media will pixilate and lighten the faces of the rapists in their media to make the rapist look more indigenous.
And at the end of all of this, the Libtards are unable to turn it back, unable to take accountability for what they have done. Just like with gun control, once they give criminals a monopoly on violence crime soars and all they can do is wring their hands.

No, in fact, the group "Feminists for Life" were specifically excluded from the march. They wanted to be involved, but were told no, since they don't fall into the appropriate mindsets to be allowed at these "we hate men" rallies.

But, but, but it says right here
1) All women shall maintain the freedom and lawful protection to choose what is best for them as it concerns their biological and reproductive health. Isn't having, keeping, nurturing, growing a baby a choice too?
2) The diverse and vibrant communities of the United States of America shall be protected from political factions that would seek to inhibit their expression and existence by implementing legal restrictions on personal freedoms. These diverse and vibrant communities are the fabric of our great country and shall not be torn by hateful, divisive, and racist rhetoric or actions.
3) All people, regardless of gender, gender identification, ethnicity, racial heritage, disability, religion, age, sexual orientation and/or socioeconomic status shall be treated equally and equitably, with respect, dignity and justice for all.

I guess ALL WOMEN means all the women that agree with infanticide, to hell with the rest.
This is why it is so important to know as much as possible about any group that we're thinking of joining before we join it. Isn't that right Del Fuego, maybe the women you know didn't perform their due diligence, or maybe they're a bunch of communist, baby-killing harpies who thought nothing of voting for the rapist bill clinton.

Anyone else think the next 4 years will be a constant "war on women" campaign? Sort of the next BLM movement?
Yes and no. This and his supposed "racism/xenophobia" will be what they attack him on, but the movement is the strongest today that it will ever be.
The anti-trump movement is going to continually discredit itself (and with it, their fellow travelers in the MSM) and when it turns out that he's not the scary Fascist dictator they're pretending he'll be, they'll lose even more support.
As pro-American and pro-capitalist policies get implemented and the fruits of those policies start to ripen, a lot of people on their side are going to shut up (and many of them will be on our side by 2018 midterms)
All this nonsense is likely the death rattle of the left and the Democrat party as we know it.
CavSct1980 - you provided alot of material to go through. I watched the videos despite of my loathing of rap in all its forms, the message in those videos is clear.
Hilaire Belloc - https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems-and-poets/poets/detail/hilaire-belloc I disagree with his sentiments about Jews, being jealous of successful people is never pretty and there are plenty of Jews who aren't millionaires and "rule the financial world".
Geoff Millard - http://thisainthell.us/blog/?p=5858
Garrett Reppenhagen - I googled him and all kinds of leftist organizations were on the first few pages. This was the first link that came up though :) http://danaloeschradio.com/a-navy-seal-responds-to-garett-reppenhagens-criticism-of-american-sniper
Jeff Englehart - A vintage link to Little Green Footballs when it was conservative - http://littlegreenfootballs.com/article/18177_How_Credible_is_Jeff_Englehart LGF is now a rabidly communist (D) website.
Anyone who hasn't been dead for the last 8 years should know who Saul Alinsky is.
I put in bold what I think some key words are:
People need to research the groups they go out and do work for, it is this laziness and ignorance that the (D) is counting on when they promote a cause that "sounds good".
Robert,
Don't worry, in general I also despise rap qua that which is usually associated with it. I don't consider it music, but rather a form of poetry (which does have precedence in what is known as flyting). My point in posting those videos is that it's not a binary race issue, but a cultural issue -- with many subcultures to deal with. Rdige wanted to paint it in the SJW "Whitey be mean, yo" meme and that's simply untrue. Heck, I have a decidedly Mexican looking entrance in our house with ristras and pictures of the Sacred Heart and Our Lady of Guadalupe in our foyer. In any case, while I'm a genetic product of WASP history I am by no means against cultures or multiple cultures in general. What I am against is the use of a novel, modern culture of death being used to destroy traditional cultures which, though different, have a lot in common. For example, in the South there is actually very little difference in the general cultures of poor blacks and poor whites traditionally speaking. That changed drastically post-1960's when the liberal programs destroyed traditional black culture.
You might be interested in what Belloc says about the Jews insofar as interaction with the state, in his essay "The Catholic Church and the Modern State" (this makes more sense in context as he is talking about Catholic interaction with Society and whether or not the Church demands a hostile takeover and extirpation of all things unCatholic:
If you doubt it, look at the attitude of the Church towards the Jews. Here, if anywhere, there should have been, according to this erroneous theory of Catholic action, a policy of extermination. The Jewish community should have been forbidden to exist; its children should have been taken from it and brought up in the Catholic Faith wholesale; its worship should have been forbidden; it should have been the subject of a crusade. History is a flat contradiction of this. Alien and unpopular, the subject of violent mob attacks, treated as foreigners by the civil power, and therefore liable to expulsion, the Jewish body, when the Church was at the height of its power in Europe, was specially protected in its privileges so far as moral theology could protect it. When Jews conspired against the State or were thought to be so conspiring, as in Spain, the State persecuted them. But there never was, and there never will be, an effort made by the Catholic Church as such to absorb or destroy that hostile community by force. The same is true of an established heretical body, or for that matter of an established Pagan body. I mean by "established," forming a large and well-rooted corporation within the State, composed of myriads who are in good faith, and living a settled traditional life of its own, reposing upon long-secured foundations. It is perfectly true that the civil power will always tend to extrude what it regards as alien and hostile; but Catholic moral theology as such has never countenanced action against those bodies only because their faith and morals were not in full harmony with the Catholic Church.
http://www.catholictradition.org/Classics/belloc2-3.htm
I don't agree on Belloc with everything as despite his strivings to be objective, he still lived in an era which was (rightly) reactionary against the horrors of Industrial Capitalism ("the dark satanic mills, that manufactured hell on earth", as described by Roger Waters in his song "Watching TV"). Chesterton, too, was a bit reactionary and this same era produced Marx. On social questions they were spot on. They were not good economists, though and I break from them when they get into postulating Distributism. One also needs to realize the context of the Jewish world at that time for Belloc. Again, just like the organizers of protest vs the guy with the sign, it would be wrong to project one's own concept of what constitutes a Jew on Belloc's thoughts and writing in the same. He was looking at the forces of Jewish influence, not Shlomo digging potatoes in the Polish countryside.
Of the 3 IVAW guys I mentioned, I liked Jeff and Garrett the most. Garrett's dad was a Vietnam vet who died from Agent Orange related cancer. He was primed from childhood for military service, but like many young men, myself included, saw something wasn't right after he'd seen the elephant; unfortunately he found solace in the utopian promises of Marx and Engels. I don't know Jeff's backstory, but he was a good little communist when I knew him. Neither of them added fluff to their service of which I'm aware (i.e., no claims of things which weren't true). Geoff was a turd through and through. I never liked Geoff.
Thank you.
I haven't heard of Belloc until you posted it and my natural reaction to anything anti-Jew came out. It doesn't mean that the rest of his writing has no value to me, just that I again see the history of the anti-Jewish movement and that gets me riled up. I don't know enough of cultural history back then, so I'll have to read up on that too.
So many things I don't know.
As to rap, I've heard of flyting before but I cannot remember where, I may have been reading a history piece. Those videos illustrate that part of my thinking does intersect with theirs, I liked and agreed with most of what they had to say. I read a book called Code of the Street and it describes what is called "decent black culture" vs "street black culture". Decent is the traditional black culture you wrote about, "street" was probably always there but really grew when the white liberals enacted their social programs.
Thank you for the further insight on IVAW. It is refreshing to read that they didn't embellish their service.

Forrest Trump!
I'm going to speak in generalities here, and it's from my own viewpoint. YMMV.
I believe many of the women marching in yesterday's "protest" did not know the seedy undercurrent steering the march; I do not have many female friends and the ones that I do have tend to be independent, skeptical and private sorts. However, I have many female acquaintances- and they are the type that tend to do things in groups. Groups of women participating in social events is nothing new; we see social dynamics in groups of children in grade school all the way up through high school and college cliques. Many women went to support friends, and many women went with the express purpose of reminding the administration that they do not want their reproductive rights jeopardized (despite what everyone wants to think, it's not just about abortion rights.) Some women went specifically to make a stink, some went to protest lies that the MSM has been spouting- I guarantee that you have people in your lives that don't do their due diligence, either- and others went because of a herd mentality. I'm glad to see the looters are being prosecuted and made an example of. Most of these women used the protest as a social sort of growing-together; a balm for the worries that have been implanted through countless years of manipulation through the MSM and the various political agendas. In other words, I believe that a smallish group of people with serious liberal agendas used a large group of people as a way to 'hide' their true goals.

As to rap,
.
RAP is the short version of / stands for Repressed African Poet at least it does / did on the east coast , NYC .
Probably just a poetic acronymization... a rapper is one who raps, so it would make more sense to be "Repressed African Poetry", though blacks have never had a monopoly on what is simply poetry -- regardless of its delivery style.

It could be a repeat of the 60s with more terrorism since Islam is in the picture.
Rap (aka Skeltonic Verse) was invented by a white guy, John Skelton, in the 15th century.

Man, I wish we had this kind of turnout for the "gathering" for the gun legislation a few years ago at the capitol. I call it a "gathering" because it was puny and kinda sad IMHO.
It was the only type of "protest" I ever attended and I was underwhelmed by the numbers in attendance. Got to meet Thomas though, so that was cool.
On the other hand, if 200k of us attended, it would have had the same result: nothing. Just like these women.

I know there are still great women in America. I have the privilege of knowing many. But I can't help but wonder if these women are being useful. It would seem there is an alliance to destroy America and they have found our weakest link in our weakest people; Liberal women.
I look at Europe and see the same thing happening here with the same "partnership" that some will readily dismiss. Sweden was the Feminist capital of Europe and is now also the rape capital. The situation there is so bad their LE dare not tread into certain areas. Swedish media will pixilate and lighten the faces of the rapists in their media to make the rapist look more indigenous.
And at the end of all of this, the Libtards are unable to turn it back, unable to take accountability for what they have done. Just like with gun control, once they give criminals a monopoly on violence crime soars and all they can do is wring their hands.
Bingo Skip.

What I meant to say here is that there is a very real threat in the world for women and it is completely ignored by almost all the women but this many women will come out to protest the administration that offers us safety from it. I am just so disappointed and being sarcastic about it since what else can I do? At least we have inaugurated Trump and can move forward with sanity.

Forgive me if this has already been posted (didn't read through all 10 pages here) but my understanding is that the reason this "protest march" was so well organized was because it has been planned since last Summer. When the Dems assumed that Hillary would win in a landslide they decided to have a big "women's rally" to show their power and to celebrate the first woman president. :rolleyes:
Of course, since their annointed candidate lost, they took all that anger and frustration and turned their "celebration" into a protest. But that explains why so many people showed up - they made their plans ahead of time and the only thing that changed was the purpose of the rally.
Media attempts to spin this as some kind of miraculous, spontaneous uprising have, of course, ignored this.....
the numbers of "protestors" did not impress me, I mean after all with social media these days and that's all they could put together? Come on, back during the Vietnam war protests had crowds this big and bigger and they didn't have social media to tell them when and where to show up with a click of a button. SO for me, UNIMPRESSED.....
http://babylonbee.com/news/survey-100-people-marching-washington-not-aborted/
WASHINGTON, D.C.—In a survey conducted in the nation’s capital Saturday, a full 100% of the people marching on the nation’s capital for abortion rights as part of the “Women’s March on Washington” were found to have not been aborted by their mothers when they were yet to be born.
The controversial study indicates that there may be a connection between participating in any kind of protest, and having a mother willing to carry you to term beforehand.
“There seems to be a very strong correlation between your biological mother choosing not to end your life in the womb, and your chances of showing up to to a protest about something,” a reporter present at the march said. “I’ve interviewed hundreds of people out here today, and it’s astounding—not a single one of them was terminated when they were still in their mother’s womb.”
At publishing time, reports had discovered similar statistics at all other Women’s March events from around the globe.

I don't see what's so tin-foil-hatty about thinking this was planned ahead of time. After all, a lot of people - me included, BTW - assumed that Hillary would win. Given how excited people were when Obama was elected it makes perfect sense that they'd be just as excited about Hillary and want to celebrate. After Trump won, the residual anger spurred them to change the intention behind the march.

That's quite the strawman you built.
1) no one said women are dumb and gullible; people certainly are, though -- it's how they get used, but it's not that they're generally dumb and gullible, but that they are contextually so. I gave a personal anecdote about my own experiences within a social movement which turned out to be largely a front for Marxist ideology. I was dumb and gullible until I started connecting dots. I'm definitely not a woman.
2) Myself, The Grey (who is a woman, I think), and others have said that it's likely most of these people were there for reasons which they saw as legit, but the forces behind the march were using them for a more nefarious purpose -- based on the history of social agitation in recent times, is it really so left-field to assume this is another operation by Soros and company, along with connected entities?
I'd say that one doesn't need to go to some opinion website... just look at the march partners for the national level:
https://www.womensmarch.com/partners/
Here' the CO partners: http://www.marchoncolorado.org/home/community-links
Then, with those in mind, relook at the mission statement and their vision:
National:
Mission & Vision
We stand together in solidarity with our partners and children for the protection of our rights, our safety, our health, and our families - recognizing that our vibrant and diverse communities are the strength of our country.
OUR MISSION
The rhetoric of the past election cycle has insulted, demonized, and threatened many of us - immigrants of all statuses, Muslims and those of diverse religious faiths, people who identify as LGBTQIA, Native people, Black and Brown people, people with disabilities, survivors of sexual assault - and our communities are hurting and scared. We are confronted with the question of how to move forward in the face of national and international concern and fear.
In the spirit of democracy and honoring the champions of human rights, dignity, and justice who have come before us, we join in diversity to show our presence in numbers too great to ignore. The Women’s March on Washington will send a bold message to our new government on their first day in office, and to the world that women's rights are human rights. We stand together, recognizing that defending the most marginalized among us is defending all of us.
We support the advocacy and resistance movements that reflect our multiple and intersecting identities. We call on all defenders of human rights to join us. This march is the first step towards unifying our communities, grounded in new relationships, to create change from the grassroots level up. We will not rest until women have parity and equity at all levels of leadership in society. We work peacefully while recognizing there is no true peace without justice and equity for all.
HEAR OUR VOICE.
“
It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences.
— Audre Lorde
GUIDING PRINCIPLES
Women’s rights are human rights, regardless of a woman’s race, ethnicity, religion, immigration status, sexual identity, gender expression, economic status, age or disability. We practice empathy with the intent to learn about the intersecting identities of each other. We will suspend our first judgement and do our best to lead without ego. We follow the principles of Kingian nonviolence, which are defined as follows:
•Principle 1: Nonviolence is a way of life for courageous people. It is a positive force confronting the forces of injustice and utilizes the righteous indignation and spiritual, emotional, and intellectual capabilities of people as the vital force for change and reconciliation.
•Principle 2: The Beloved Community is the framework for the future. The nonviolent concept is an overall effort to achieve a reconciled world by raising the level of relationships among people to a height where justice prevails and persons attain their full human potential.
•Principle 3: Attack forces of evil, not persons doing evil. The nonviolent approach helps one analyze the fundamental conditions, policies and practices of the conflict rather than reacting to one’s opponents or their personalities.
•Principle 4: Accept suffering without retaliation for the sake of the cause to achieve our goal. Self-chosen suffering is redemptive and helps the movement grow in a spiritual as well as a humanitarian dimension. The moral authority of voluntary suffering for a goal communicates the concern to one’s own friends and community as well as to the opponent.
•Principle 5: Avoid internal violence of the spirit as well as external physical violence. The nonviolent attitude permeates all aspects of the campaign. It provides a mirror type reflection of the reality of the condition to one’s opponent and the community at large. Specific activities must be designed to maintain a high level of spirit and morale during a nonviolent campaign.

UNITY PRINCIPLES:
Unity Principles
Click to download full PDF
We believe that Women’s Rights are Human Rights and Human Rights are Women’s Rights. We must create a society in which women - including Black women, Native women, poor women, immigrant women, disabled women, Muslim women, lesbian queer and trans women - are free and able to care for and nurture their families, however they are formed, in safe and healthy environments free from structural impediments.
ENDING VIOLENCE
Women deserve to live full and healthy lives, free of all forms of violence against our bodies. We believe in accountability and justice in cases of police brutality and ending racial profiling and targeting of communities of color. It is our moral imperative to dismantle the gender and racial inequities within the criminal justice system.
REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS
We believe in Reproductive Freedom. We do not accept any federal, state or local rollbacks, cuts or restrictions on our ability to access quality reproductive healthcare services, birth control, HIV/AIDS care and prevention, or medically accurate sexuality education. This means open access to safe, legal, affordable abortion and birth control for all people, regardless of income, location or education.
LGBTQIA RIGHTS
We firmly declare that LGBTQIA Rights are Human Rights and that it is our obligation to uplift, expand and protect the rights of our gay, lesbian, bi, queer, trans or gender non-conforming brothers, sisters and siblings. We must have the power to control our bodies and be free from gender norms, expectations and stereotypes.
WORKER’S RIGHTS
We believe in an economy powered by transparency, accountability, security and equity. All women should be paid equitably, with access to affordable childcare, sick days, healthcare, paid family leave, and healthy work environments. All workers – including domestic and farm workers, undocumented and migrant workers - must have the right to organize and fight for a living minimum wage.
CIVIL RIGHTS
We believe Civil Rights are our birthright, including voting rights, freedom to worship without fear of intimidation or harassment, freedom of speech, and protections for all citizens regardless of race, gender, age or disability. We believe it is time for an all-inclusive Equal Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
DISABILITY RIGHTS
We believe that all women’s issues are issues faced by women with disabilities and Deaf women. As mothers, sisters, daughters, and contributing members of this great nation, we seek to break barriers to access, inclusion, independence, and the full enjoyment of citizenship at home and around the world. We strive to be fully included in and contribute to all aspects of American life, economy, and culture.
IMMIGRANT RIGHTS
Rooted in the promise of America’s call for huddled masses yearning to breathe free, we believe in immigrant and refugee rights regardless of status or country of origin. We believe migration is a human right and that no human being is illegal.
ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE
We believe that every person and every community in our nation has the right to clean water, clean air, and access to and enjoyment of public lands. We believe that our environment and our climate must be protected, and that our land and natural resources cannot be exploited for corporate gain or greed - especially at the risk of public safety and health.

The Women’s March On Denver Mission Statement
Because we CARE, on January 21, 2017 we will stand together to tell the nation and the administration-elect that:
1) All women shall maintain the freedom and lawful protection to choose what is best for them as it concerns their biological and reproductive health.
2) The diverse and vibrant communities of the United States of America shall be protected from political factions that would seek to inhibit their expression and existence by implementing legal restrictions on personal freedoms. These diverse and vibrant communities are the fabric of our great country and shall not be torn by hateful, divisive, and racist rhetoric or actions.
3) All people, regardless of gender, gender identification, ethnicity, racial heritage, disability, religion, age, sexual orientation and/or socioeconomic status shall be treated equally and equitably, with respect, dignity and justice for all.
By bringing thousands of people together online and in person at Denver’s Civic Center Park, we strive to provide an outlet and support for those who wish to:
1) Advocate for and defend the most marginalized members of our society.
2) Connect with like-minded individuals and organizations within local Colorado communities.
3) Serve as a model of peaceful demonstration for the young women and men, and girls and boys, who will be the leaders of tomorrow.
4) Honor the women and men who have come before us and fought for human and women’s rights.
Our Vision Statement
We are all relevant, we are all valued, and we are more powerful together.
Our Message
This march is not a protest, but rather an opportunity for all participants to support social justice, human rights and equality, and to demonstrate that we will be vigilant in protecting these rights moving forward.
Moving Forward:
The question keeps coming up - What's going to happen after the march?
Many of those involved as organizers and marchers are working on creating a solid community of people who are willing to stand up and work vigilantly for the protection and expansion of human rights. Our vision for the future of our movement is blurry...but we do have a vision.
We will be focusing on connecting people with the organizations and opportunities that allow them to be a force for change in areas that are important to them while also mobilizing everyday folks to take part in the legislative process in ways that further our cause of social justice and human rights.
How this will manifest is highly dependent on the people who decide to let their voice be heard beyond January 21st. Right now we are focused on the march and rally, BUT we are connecting with one another on social media through our MarchonColorado.org group that we established in an effort to maintain the phenomenal positive and determinded energy that has arose out of the marches.

LGBTQIA RIGHTS
What's the I and the A stand for? That's a few new letters to me. Maybe the A is ambiguous?
