Thousands of people hold up signs in Denver’s Civic Center last Saturday after taking part in the Denver Women’s March.

Re: “Marches do not a movement make,” Jan. 25 Krista Kafer column.

Krista Kafer fails to see that the “movement” she writes about has been going on for decades and she is a direct beneficiary of it. She denigrates the women’s marches as theater but almost certainly cannot explain why women outvoted men significantly in Colorado’s November election. Yes, “marches do not a movement make,” but maintaining the buzz leads to votes. Shame on Kafer for not crediting the women who have come before her, doing important work.

I marched in the Denver Women’s March not because I wanted to persuade other people, but to show the powers that be that I am here and that I strongly disagree with what they are doing, in many areas.
