Thousands attended a women’s march through downtown Bellingham on January 20.

The event marked the one-year anniversary of a march held internationally in protest of President Donald Trump’s inauguration. This year, organizers labeled the march as an opportunity for women to march for unity, equity, justice and humanity.

Several residents, including some from Blaine and Birch Bay, participated.
