- Description
- On January 21, 2017, hundreds of thousands of people marched in support of women's rights, women's health issues, immigrant rights, LGBT rights and other issues. These marches were held in Washington DC, Los Angeles, Atlanta, New York and many other places, including Antarctica, London, Australia, Germany and other countries. The Archives and Special Collections unit of Radford University's McConnell Library is conducting interviews of participants of various marches to help preserve the history, the ideas and impressions of those marchers. On February 6, 2017 Beth Kelsey- Washington DC marcher- sat down and told the details about the march, both figuratively and literally. She talked about why she marched, what she hopes will come from the march, addresses concerns of those opposed to the march and summed up her experience very succinctly at the end. This interview is illustrated with many photographs and a few video clips from the march. A high definition version of this video is viewable from the Archives and Special Collections video collection on Vimeo- https://vimeo.com/204252639
