 And for the third year residents took the streets around the country for the annual Women's March on Saturday. Organizers of Bemidji Women's March say the movement stands for a variety of things such as inclusion, safety and celebration of all people. This year the route started at the Boards building at Bemidji State University and then it went to Paul and Babe and back. The local Women's March always coincides with the National Women's March movement on the same day. Support for this march today has been tremendous. We've had a wonderful committee working together, a very diverse committee and the friendship and the relationships that we've been forming through the past three years of Women's Marches are amazing. The 2019 Bemidji Women's March was co-sponsored by the American Indian Resource Center, Psychology Department and Social Work Department at PSU.
