Thousands of voters gathered in Washington DC November 14th to protest during the Million MAGA March, a march planned to show support for President Trump as part of the #StopTheSteal movement.
“Stop the Steal” is an internet movement that quickly gained steam in “real life” through organized protests across cities in the United States, where citizens expressed their distrust in the 2020 election results. Many I’ve spoken with have cited allegations of mass fraud in both mail-in voting and vote counting tabulations.
These attendees included thousands of women, an often-spoke about group who turned out to support President Trump both in rallies and at the polls. Analysis by NBC News shows that 55 percent of white women, 8 percent of Black women, and 28 percent of Latina women supported President Trump when voting November 3rd.
“The liberal media wants you to believe that you don’t exist, that we don’t exist,” one woman told the crowd. “I ma here to show you that we do exist. The silent majority will be silent no more.”
Below, you will see the faces of some of the women who attended the rally in Washington DC. I felt it was important to show you the faces behind some of the stories I’ve learned and shared already as an illustration of the real people — and dreams, goals, and concerns — behind the votes and numbers this past week.
[Editors Note]: It is here that I want to remind you of the premise of this project — we are more alike than different and most people are good. We the Voters is a non-partisan project; coverage of any group or event by We the Voters does not equal endorsement. As with all of my coverage in the past year, I hope it helps you gain a more full picture of the many pieces in the American puzzle.
