The board is, ahem, moving fast today, and some marvelous stuff is getting buried in the monster threads. I thought this might be a good place to collect reports from on the ground in D.C.

Thanks to SpartacusAutisticus for posting Natasha Chart's wonderful, raw speech outside Human Rights Campaign:

Here is the protest outside Twitter:

It's working ok for me through Bubonic's link. Not on Youtube at all, despite that being the link from Standing For Women's page. Confused

Does the live feed keep jumping for anyone else?

Does it exist anywhere other than Facebook?

Twitter has marked it sensitive content?

Twitter has a problem with women

Blush reading comprehension error on my part; the 11 am livestream was for the yesterday's protests. Today's panel is indeed at 1 pm. So sorry!

I think you are right Bubonic; Standing for Women's site says 11 am, but I found the eventbrite page for the panel and that says 1pm. Ugh! Sorry

Surely it's 1pm EST not 11am?

Needmoresleep · 27/01/2019 16:01

It sounds like an amazing line up.

I hope American women are inspired.

Just bumping for visibility as livestream begins in five minutes. I'm looking forward to hearing from these women with different areas of expertise and points of view!

The fab Ann Ruzylo has been tweeting lots of photos of the Washington protests (Twitter has marked them 'sensitive' so you have to click to see the images Hmm):
