It’s one of hundreds of rallies taking place around the country, just a day after the presidential inauguration of Donald Trump. The marches aim to send a message to the new administration about the importance of women’s rights. The roughly two-mile march in Chicago starts near Jackson Blvd. and Lake Shore Drive at 10 A.M. on Saturday morning.
