March for Women's Lives - Songs and Speeches

We were just awestruck at how organized everything was. They had these huge, great big screens. They had a presentation stage at one end of the Mall in front of the Washington memorial and one at the other end of the Mall with the Capitol as a backdrop. But you could see and hear them anyplace you were in the Mall because they had these huge, huge, great big, wonderful screens.
