If they are from America, they are welcome, if they are from South America, South Africa, or from Southern France, they are welcome to the Million Woman March. We are of African Descent and call on all African women to support us. Sisters will determine who will speak based on the Million Woman Marches priorities, objectives and agenda. Women will speak based on who helped make it happen and certainly not those who think they are going to show an interest or show up up at the last minute just to be seen or heard. Right now, the Million Woman March needs workers, be they well known or unknown, wealthy or poor.
Black women have most of the same problems that Black men do.
We too need more unity and more self-esteem. We too need economic development, to build institutions, to care for our sick and elderly, to reduce recidivism among women in the prisions. We too are affected by the proliferation of drugs in our community, domestic violence, homelessness and the Aids virus. One Million Black Women are going to set the tone. Pa. This is not a one shot event, but a process.
