gen x feminist writes "I just wanted to say thanks to the black bloc for being at the march for women in d.c. it was a great moment during the home stretch to catch up to you (out of curiosity and slight attraction) and feel somewhat protected, with lifted spirits as the men and women beat their pvc drums and you marched alongside old ladies, families with babies, and hipsters like myself for an important cause. you make the movement interesting and keep me hopeful."
