It is an anti-racist, anti-violent, volunteer-led, grassroots effort with a goal to bridge together communities across race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, age, size, gender identity, gender expression, sexuality, culture, immigrant status, spirituality, and ability. We challenge fatphobia and are body positive. ********************************************************** “We move to create visibility, to honor our histories and identities, to disrupt oppression and dominance, to challenge silence and fear, because we are everywhere, because we must survive” ********************************************************** We need volunteers!!! If you’re interested in any kind of volunteering, please email us at dykemarchchicago@gmail.com and let us know! - SAFETY MARSHALL volunteers are needed to be trained prior to the March and then to help during the March! They are mostly our “eyes and ears” as we march the route. Safety Marshall trainings will happen a few times in June. - VOLUNTEERS TO HELP SET-UP AND TAKE DOWN the rally! Also for different events leading up to the march.
