So How It Was ...

“ As we marched , step by step , chant by chant and peeled our layers back , I got a glimpse of a future where being who we are is not seen as an injustice to ourselves . The power that ’ s now vested in me exists because of the power that ’ s vested in this revolutionary movement .”
Charise
“ I was so amazed and heartened to see the wide cross-section of women and men who came and marched passionately in solidarity for this cause . That people walked and chanted , and actually grabbed the attention of so many people in Bridgetown - who may not have been aware of the movement - was also fantastic .”
Khalil
“ Life in Leggings felt very genuine . From the leaders of the march to the supporters marching , the cause was the fuel of the event . It also was a powerful space to be in as well . Watching women take their voices from the digital space to the streets was nothing short of amazing .”
