MARCH FOR BLACK WOMEN DETROIT
SATURDAY, NOV. 17, 2018 12 PM to 4 PM
SPIRIT OF DETROIT PLAZA
2 Woodward Ave. at Jefferson
Sister march for March for Black Women in D.C. and NYC, organized by Black Women’s Blueprint. Black women are often left out of feminist and pro-Black spaces. This march is our space to speak. Our purpose is to educate the community on the many issues that Black women face (Trans violence, sexual assault, domestic violence, etc.) and also celebrate them.
