Students from across the country are mobilizing to be part of the National Equality March. NEM student organizers think it will be a powerful experience for all students who come to march together and show that we are united in this civil rights struggle of our generation.
We invite all students and student organizations from campuses around the country to march with NEMstudents. By marching together, LGBTQ students from across the country will be able to meet each other, exchange information and potentially establish a network of student activists across the country. This will be very important as we continue to organize once we go back home. NEMstudents have secured a permit for the Ellipse from Park Services and that will serve as the gathering spot for march contingent. The Ellipse is a few short blocks from where the National Equality March will step off at 12noon.
Students will gather at the Ellipse (15th and E) at 10am and march as a block to join the National Equality March at 12noon. We encourage students coming from campuses around the country to march together with banners, signs, and placards representing their schools. Be sure to wear your school shirts and colors!
