It is estimated that millions of people worldwide marched in conjunction with Saturday’s Women’s March on Washington. Across the globe, people came together on President Donald Trump’s first full day in office in an act of mass catharsis and solidarity, bringing individual messages of human rights and social justice.

But while Saturday invigorated the movement to resist Trump, many are asking how to turn the energy of the demonstration into action.

This week, host Jessica Valenti talks with Jamia Wilson, executive director of Women, Action, and the Media, about what happened on Saturday and what comes next. The pair examine some criticisms of the march and look at plans to keep the momentum going.
