Global Political Issue

One issue that has recently received a lot of attention in the news, especially in politics is women’s rights. This past weekend, marches across the country have occurred where crowds of over 60,000 people took place in Minnesota alone. Women gathered to speak about diversity issues, equality for pay, the right to their own body, and many other issues relating to their rights as a woman. Not only did this event take place in Minnesota, but the numbers reported across the country have came close to breaking records. The article from the St. Cloud Times gives an overview of what happened close to home. I will be following this issue throughout the semester as I can relate to the struggles most of these women are facing as well. With the new Trump administration, there is bound to be many changes which can affect citizens, and also other individuals world wide.
