This week, Sunday Conversations went to the March for Black Women demonstration in Philadelphia. The mission of the march was to address the racial, social and economic concerns of black women and to show solidarity. More than 100 people gathered at City Hall with signs. India Fenner, a 19-year-old Temple University student, is the young woman who organized the march. You'll hear the voices of black and brown women talk about why a march like was needed.

The urgency to support women’s rights is still present. If you’ve been scrolling through your social media, you may have seen images of women from cities across the U.S. and the world wearing yellow, gold, tan and beige with the hashtag Unity in Color. This photography series was created by a woman named Jasmine Solano. 

In this episode you’ll meet Jasmine and find out why she chose the color scheme. And, you'll meet Ciarra Walker, the organizer of Philadelphia’s Unity in Color photo.
