Women's March plans strike: Day without a woman

[Dashinka 24,598]

Thought this was interesting if it comes to pass. 

 

The organizers of the Women's March on Washington unveiled on Instagram Monday a new step for taking action.

It posted an image that said, simply: "General strike: A day without a woman. Date to be announced." In the comments, it posted, "The will of the people will stand."

In seven hours, it had amassed 23,800 likes on Instagram and more than 600 comments.

It's the latest in a series of online directives issued to supporters of the march, which drew millions of women onto the streets in cities around the world to express their support for women's rights, reproductive rights, ending gender-based violence, LGBTQIA rights, workers rights, civil rights, immigrant rights, religious freedom and environmental justice.

Event organizers unveiled the "10 Actions for the first 100 Days" campaign right after the march on its website, www.womensmarch.com, an effort to keep those who supported the march focused on activism in the first 100 days on President Donald Trump's administration.

It's not clear, however, what the post means or how it will play out. There are no details about when it will take place, and whether organizers are suggesting women call in sick on a particular day, or whether they're suggesting a purchasing strike for one day.

Since I got none, perhaps I should start dressing like him? Ill fitting suites, long red tie and a dead animal on the head.

Otherwise his 70 year old mind confuses genders?

 

Is that why he was so pissed off at McCarthy doing that SNL skit on Spicer? Spicer wasn't 10% outraged as Trump was. I hope SNL really brings in Rosie O'Donnell as either Trump (in a Alec Baldwin as Trump watching Rosie spoofing him as Trump on TV) or Bannon.

It's funny to me that the main person who put together the women's march and the day without a woman is a woman who has ties to Hamas and wants to implement Sharia Law.
