The Women’s March on Washington organization reported that there were more than 600 sister events planned, with support streaming in from all seven continents. Hundreds of thousands of activists have flooded the nation’s capital to call for equality and protest the incoming Trump administration. March organizers said that as many as half a million people had turned out for the D.C. event, double their initial estimate. The 42-year-old data analytics and market research professional told The Independent that a group of about 30 people planned to march in a sister event in Antarctica. One of the group’s banners reportedly read “Penguins for Peace.”Although they may be the only protesters in Antarctica, they had plenty of support across the six other continents.
