OUR MISSION.
The mission of Women’s March is to harness the political power of diverse women and their communities to create transformative social change. Women’s March is a women-led movement providing intersectional education on a diverse range of issues and creating entry points for new grassroots activists & organizers to engage in their local communities through trainings, outreach programs and events. Women’s March is committed to dismantling systems of oppression through nonviolent resistance and building inclusive structures guided by self-determination, dignity and respect.

Women's March Tennessee - Power Together TN is the official Tennessee chapter of Women's March Inc. We are an all volunteer, free association of people coming together as a force for good in Tennessee, to take action around diverse issues that impact our communities, and to build a sustainable and equitable future for all people. We are bound together by our commitment to the WM Unity Principles. We stand for the expansion of human rights (Women's Rights are Human Rights!) and the power of women, their partners and families, to save the soul of our nation - and our state. We are building momentum and power together - join us!

OUR Nashville STORY
Year one: Jan 2017, “Power Together TN, in solidarity with Women’s March on Washington.” Our greatest dream was that our sister march would galvanize our progressive Tennessee communities in powerful and sustainable ways. We hoped for 3k -- and 20k showed up! The march generated incredible momentum from our grassroots base, signaling a fundamental challenge by women and their allies in Tennessee and across the country to political business-as-usual. At WMTN-Power Together, we began to organize ourselves for sustainable work as an all volunteer, free association of people, coming together to be a force for good in Tennessee.

Year two: Jan 2018, “Women’s March 2.0: Power Together TN.” Thanks to the support of our community, we sustained year one participation levels, demonstrating the community’s continued interest in an annual WM event. We have grown our coalition to over 100 community organizations. We continue to develop our chapter and collaborate with other groups on direct actions, crisis response, phone and email campaigns, leadership development, legislative outreach, voter registration and civic engagement.

Year three: Jan 2019,“Women’s March Tennessee: #WomensWaveTN #PowerTogetherTN” Join us -- our story is still being written and we want you to claim your page in the next chapter as we roll out #WomensAgenda - a bold policy and legislative platform for 2019, 2020, and beyond.
