Originally published in The Coaster January 23, 2017…

The Women’s March on Saturday was an inspiring show of feminist strength.  In Asbury Park and around the country women along with the people who love them spoke with their collective presence, their knitted “pussy cat” caps, as well as the red, white, blue, or pink signs they carried.

A reported 6000 people gathered in Asbury Park on Saturday for the Women’s March. Pictured from left to right: Anna Villapiano, Holly Talbot, Jilian Brockelbank, Kathleen Schutz, and Mary McAllister.
