April 22 March for Science

Yep. You know the drill.

As opposed to the Women's March, the March for Science has actual CONSTITUENTS.

If you use a mobile phone, support your local march.
If you have ever taken a pill, support your march.
If you drive a car, support your march.
If you use a computer, support your march.

Our march is -- again -- non partisan, and a support and celebration of science. We will be partnering with our local ComicCon as well as local Earth Day activities, so number counts will be harder to come by -- who is there for ComicCon, who for the march? But it halves the work, and these are all like-minded people.

Marches in other areas of the country may not have this teaming-up.

ETA: My sign is going to read "Luddites for Science!"

Thanks for posting; I had not heard of this march. Science is definitely under attack.

https://www.marchforscience.com/satellite-marches/ to find a march near you.

My smallish city is planning an event. I will be thinking about a good sign!

As this gets closer, we should try to meet up. I'm coming alone.

Just to be clear - it's not my sign, just something I stumbled across on the interwebz. :)

Oh, hey.. good idea! Maybe I'll do the same. I'm deciding which march to attend. I did buy a few t-shirts to support the Boston march, though.

I'm in DC. With friends, staying with their daughter and her roomies (I'm WAY too old for this), while they booked a room near Arlington. Anyone else?
