Look at you, posting about uteruses, vaginas and stuff… from the photos, it looks like you were in the midst of the rally. Were you holding your own sign, or just a camera? I don’t quite understand the “azure” reference, but I’m proud of you nonetheless for promoting women’s rights (this, from a liberal “old white man’s” point of view). 😉
I popped over from my office. (The last shot of the Capitol was taken from our balcony when I returned.) I didn’t have a sign. Wasn’t even wearing orange. Re azure, Texas was a blue state 20 years ago. Ann Richards was governor. There’s been a lot of talk lately (eg, story this week on NPR) about the state being on the brink of flipping back over to blue. The pendulum has swung too far, and we’ve had enough. Not to mention the large Hispanic population and the influx of our more liberal-minded neighbors from your state. Luckily, I live in Austin, a deep blue bubble in the middle of the state. I’m safe here from the Ted Cruz crazies. What an embarrassment.
Powerful photos.

It was an overwhelming experience. Nevertheless, the old white men will push the law through. Hopefully, an azure tide is ahead for Texas.

I loved that one, too! I think they’ve really kicked the hornets nest this time.

My favourite sign was the one about what confuses Texas republicans 😉

It was great! I was impressed with how clever that one was. It was a great spectacle, all those women proudly posing for photos with their signs.
