Hundreds Unite for a Common Cause

In anticipation of President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration, hundreds marched through the streets of Madison, Wisconsin, in a symbolic protest. The rally, known as the "People's March," aimed to address a spectrum of social and political concerns.

Attendees expressed their support for a diverse range of issues, including women's rights, workers' rights, abortion rights, and LGBTQ+ rights. They also called for global solidarity and environmental justice.

"It's all needs to be addressed," remarked one participant. "We have to come together for each other," added another.

Mia Kruzer, the event organizer, emphasized the importance of community and unity. "We wanted to show that we are a community, and that it's vital to find our place within it," she said.

Anxiety over the Future

The march also served as an expression of anxiety and trepidation about the upcoming presidency. "People are getting nervous," said Mya Cullen, a march volunteer. "They're starting to realize what the next four years might hold for us."
