AFTER THE MARCH, WOMEN SHALL MATTER ALL THE MORE




Two important tasks to look into after the march:

the legislative work to be done and the need to keep the burning fervor alive until we reach our goal. 


Here is what I have just read: "The “Magic Number” of Republicans to vote to impeach and convict Donald Trump if all 242 Democrats vote to do so.

"There are 194 Democrats in The House. If 24 Republicans join with them, Donald Trump will be impeached.

There are 48 Democrats in The Senate. If 19 Republican Senators join with them, Donald Trump is convicted and instantly removed from office.

".http://www.huffingtonpost.com/richard-greene/it-only-takes-286-people_b_14315334.html?

All women lawyers, students of law, and alternative law groups could come together and strategize how to reach out to the 34 (not just 24 in order to insure the numbers)house of representative members and 29 senators (not just 19) who will vote to impeach Trump. 

That is a lot of work to be done, in terms of knowing the personal lives of these people, knowing their educational background, their idiosyncracies, their likes and dislikes, the people close to them, the people they influence and the people also who abhor them. What about their religions? How do their pastors or priests view them? Is it possible for them to get influenced by them? 

In other words, sleuthing is the policy of the year. HOWEVER, THE QUESTION PERSISTS:
who will succed Trump?

I think there is a great need to pin down the Russians as the culprit in the defeat of Hillary. 

Secondly, strengthen Hillary so that she would not succumb to pressures to have any photo-ops with Trump. Keep her pure - unsullied by any Trumpian quality.

Thirdly, keep watch over the hackers. One of them could squeal the beans on how they really hacked the computers to give the magic number of votes for Trump. 

Then the signs at the Women's March should not end there. At every corner, have a reminder of the needs of the day -- like "Keep a wide eye over pussy grabbers!" Sometimes people lose interest because their attention is taken away by everyday material things and deeds to be done. 

Insist that media cover any event that resisters will  put up. The coverage of the Women's March is terrific. They will go down in history as one big achievement of women when the whole world sat and watch -- how women trampled on the image of Trump literally, figuratively, literary-wise and humorously. 

Humour is a great tactic to use when and where we are dealing with bigots, narrow-minded AH and male chauvinists.

Let us also have a blog where we can send messages of support to all women so we can also expose those who suffer from harassment in their own countries, like mine. By having a group blog, we could show to the world, women or any woman is not alone. We have support from around the globe who will expose the misdemeanors of those who oppress, downgrade, insult, and violate women's human rights, in general and specific terms. 

Let us also not forget to have animation films on YouTube so we can also watch feminist humour  in them. That would lighten up the feelings of those who are sunk in their day-to-day  or night-to-night jobs.

 Lastly, let us collectively meditate and pray that this world will forever be humane towards older women, adult women, and girls.
