A Women’s March group in Humboldt County, California, won’t be holding its annual demonstration next month because of concerns participants would be “overwhelmingly white.”
“This decision was made after many conversations between local social-change organizers and supporters of the march,” the chapter’s organizers said Friday in a statement posted on Facebook. “The local organizers are continuing to meet and discuss how to broaden representation in the organizing committee to create an event that represents and supports peoples who live here in Humboldt.”
