Since hosting 10,000 marchers in Seneca Falls on January
21, Women March in Seneca Falls organizers met to determine immediate, short
and longer term “calls to action” to fulfill their mission. Spokesperson,
Melina Carnicelli, said, “The organizing group meets regularly as a whole
and in smaller work teams to carry out our goals, and to support various
local and national activist groups. We are co
mmitted to continuous vigilance
around issues of deep political concern affecting women’s rights and all
human rights. Currently, we are engaged in Women’s March on Washington
10Actions/100Days; Sister Giant in DC 2017; 19CAMPAIGN online fundraising;
INDIVISIBLE-SENECA FALLS; an ALBANY WATCH of local state electeds;
collaborations with Friends of Women’s Rights National Historical Park and
National Women’s Hall of Fame; and, candidate and campaign leader
recruitment for local, state and national elected offices, particularly for
the 2018 and 2020 election cycles. We are relentless in our resolve to
resist rollbacks, by our national and local governments, to rights that are
hallmark to our American way of life.”
Women March in Seneca Falls is an inclusive, non-partisan group dedicated to
providing opportunities to publicly demonstrate the strength, power, and
courage of women in America. It is committed to protecting and enhancing
rights belonging to women through awareness and fund raising, meaningful
collaborations, and community education in Seneca Falls, New York, US
birthplace of women’s rights, and throughout New York state. Through
frequent “calls to action,” Women March in Seneca Falls continually reminds
local, state, and national elected and appointed government officials that
women’s rights activists are vigilantly carrying on the political activism
of their foremothers.
“We’ve chosen the path to equality; don’t let them turn us around.”
