Scenes from the D.C. Women's March

Today, half a million people gathered on the streets of Washington D.C. for the Women's March. Protesters included people of all ages and genders, and they carried with them a multitude of clever signs. In fact, so many people showed up for support that organizers found it impossible to follow the original march route. Joy Lee | News Photo Editor

Photo Gallery | Thousands gather for the Philadelphia Women's March

As women's marches happened around the world today, Philadelphia was the host of its own march. Thousands of people — women, men, and children — marched from Logan's Circle to the step of the Philadelphia Art Museum. Marchers, who held a myriad of unique signs, chanted and cheered as they made their way down Benjamin Franklin Parkway on Saturday morning. The crowds remained peaceful and positive.Photos by Ananya Chandra and Morgan Rees
