These Ladies on Their Way to the Women’s March in Washington Will Inspire You to No End
As Donald Trump’s first day in office comes to a close, many are looking ahead to a new day: Namely, tomorrow, when an approximate one million women (including some of Brit + Co’s very own!) will be taking Washington — and other cities around the world, for that matter: Australia already had their march being a day ahead — by storm.
Yet, this is set to be a very different protest than the ones currently making headlines at the moment, with women (and men!) alike already feeling plenty inspired as they make their way to what will be protest ground zero.
Armed with their pussy hats and #NastyWomen merch, this army of female warriors is mighty, and the proof’s in the posts: Check out their inspiring journey below!

My flight to D.C. right now could almost double as a private jet for Women's March attendees 👏🏼👯

4. @ZoieDiana: @ZoieDiana marveled at what felt like a personal flight to the event.

5. @bicykel: Even men applauded the ladies’ efforts, with @bicykel giving props where props were due.
6. @kpmagnolia: Making the trip even more special were both the flights and the crews — Southwest airlines went so far as to change its lights to pink for a flight from Chicago to Baltimore on Thursday, as @kpmagnolia gave us a glimpse of. “When your Southwest flight crew celebrate a plane full of kickass women and men going to the Women’s March by lighting it up!” she wrote.
The woman next to me on the plane was handed this by the flight attendant. #WomensMarchOnWashington #WhyIMarch pic.twitter.com/PjlL9H59KR

10. @Flor Blake: Yet another attendant on Spirit Airlines asked for a round of applause for all the “Nasty Women on board,” saying, “Just remember, we don’t take no *ish from no man.”
Amen to that, sister!
