Narrative
The Million Women March, founded by Phile Chionesue, was a protest march that took place in Philadelphia, PA in 1997 under the mission of supporting African-American women's self-determination. The march was envisioned and intended to help bring social and economic development and power throughout the black communities of the United States, as well as to bring hope, empowerment, unity, and sisterhood to women, men, and children of African descent globally regardless of nationality, religion, or economic status. It is estimated 300,000 to 500,000 people attended the peaceful march.
