BOSTON — Weather reports showed a winter storm. And news reports spoke of infighting and controversy. But none of that stopped Miranda Compton and her daughter from boarding their flight on Friday to Washington from Georgia to attend the second anniversary of the Women’s March. “It’s my dream come true,” said Ms. Compton, a 49-year-old retired assistant high school principal from Lakemont, Ga., population 2,200. “For the first time in my lifetime, I don’t feel like the only feminist in my town.”Two years after millions marched around the country and the world in an unambiguous rebuke to President Trump, much smaller crowds appeared at Saturday’s events surrounding the second anniversary of the Women’s March.
