“We will not go quietly into the night. We will resist. We will persist. And we will organize.” That’s the message from the Women’s March Foundation. Thousands of protesters will rally in Downtown Los Angeles for the International Women’s Day Protest & Rally on Saturday, March 8.

“This is our day to stand together, make our voices heard, and show the world that we are not backing down. Women’s rights are under attack, but we refuse to go backward,” organizers announced. “This is more than a march—it’s a movement. The war on women is real, driven by the Project 2025 playbook, which is why, more than ever, we must continue to resist, persist, and demand change.”

In 2017, the Women’s March Foundation together with partner organizations and community activists came together to march, resist, and fight for a future that values women’s rights, immigrant rights, LGBTQ+ equality, and justice for our communities and planet. 

“Here we are in 2025, standing at another pivotal moment in history. With a second Trump Administration that has set a war against women driven by the Project 2025 playbook, we must continue to resist, persist, and demand change.”
