SOCY Professors Survey Women's March Participants

Parren Mitchell Art-Sociology Building

On January 21, 2017, Drs. Dawn Dow, Dana Fisher, and Rashawn Ray attended the Women's March with a team of researchers to survey participants in order to understand who was protesting and why. 

In the days following the March, Fisher, whose research focuses on environmental policy, civic participation and activism, was interviewed by the Associated Press, New York Magazine, Vox, and NPR to the Point.  You can read more about their experiences and preliminary survey results in the following blogs:
