Video: Chicagoans Fill Flights To D.C. For Women's March On Washington
By Stephen Gossett in News on Jan 20, 2017 10:29PM
Anyone in the Trump opposition could find a bit of tonic from Friday's it-really-happened, PEOTUS-to-POTUS inauguration ceremony with one particularly mobilized bit of virality: video and photos of flights from all around the country, packed with people on their way to the Women's March on Washington.
Chicago, no surprise, was well represented. We found a particularly choice clip and some great photos that users shared of their collectively spirited travels.
Check out the video, posted on Instagram by Chicagoan Emily Heist Moss, of a plane full of D.C. marchers celebrating before takeoff. Below the video, find more photos and missives from the Chicago-to-DC journey by air. And remember, if you can't make the D.C. trip but are still interested in demonstrating, Chicago hosts its sister rally and march on Saturday morning downtown.
