You Can't Have Justice On Stolen Lands from Womxn's March Seattle

Jan 26, 2017, 06:19 AM

Indigenous tribal members chant, "You can't have justice on stolen land!" near the start of the Womxn's March in Seattle. They are followed by singing and hand drums. Marching to the side, rather than directly in the route, they remind us a struggle that has too long been ignored.

On January 21st, 2017, Seattle joined forces and unite for the Womxn’s March on Seattle in solidarity with the national Women’s March on Washington D.C. and other sister events around the world.

With an estimated crowd of over 150,000 marchers, it was one of the largest peaceful marches in Seattle history. The full march stretched nearly 3.5 miles, starting at Judkins Park and ending at Seattle Center.

In an effort to aid in documenting this historic event for future generations, I made my way through the crowd and recorded from numerous vantage points, never hiding myself nor taking my presence out of the situation.

I present these tracks to you to have and download and use free of license or attribution. I would only ask that you use them to honor and respect the mission of the march and do not seek to use them to harm, hurt, oppress, marginalize, or otherwise minimize anyone's plight.

If you use these tracks in a for-profit manner, I'd appreciate the thanks and credit.
