As hundreds of thousands of demonstrators gathered in Washington, D.C. on Saturday for the Women’s March, thousands more gathered at sister marches across the globe. From Australia and Peru to Lebanon and Malawi — even as far as Antarctica — marchers joined in to speak out against sexism, racism and attacks on equality in the U.S. and around the world.
The official count as of Saturday afternoon was 673 women’s marches in total — across all seven continents and in every corner of the globe. Here are some of the powerful images showing just how widespread and united the women’s movement was on Saturday.
