What to Expect From the Second Annual Women's March
Elle.com's Mattie Kahn and Vanessa Cardenas from EMILY's List explain what to expect from the second annual Women's March happening this weekend. They also discuss the progress they've seen over the past year on women's issues.
Kahn and Cardenas agree it's a mistake to play the numbers game, and that it doesn't matter whether there are more or less participants at this year's march. Kahn says the purpose of the march is to declare the movement is far from finished. Cardenas is hopeful for the future, noting the number of women currently running for public office is the highest it's ever been.
Cardenas says the women running for office have roots in many different causes. Kahn spoke with Cecile Richards, president of Planned Parenthood, who said this is a crucial moment for women in America, and it must be seized.
