TextOn January 21, 2017, the day after the inauguration of President Donald J. Trump, millions of women marched in support of gender equality as well as reproductive, civil, and human rights. Widely believed to be the largest single day of protest in American history, the Women’s March drew between 3.3 and 4.6 million people to the streets across the nation, with approximately 575,000 individuals marching in Washington, DC. Fink dedicated his photographs of the event “to the women and men who march against history’s reactive flow.”
