The Women's March on Washington was a worldwide protest with approximately 5 million total participants in all 50 states and on all 7 continents on January 21, 2017, the day after President Donald Trump was inaugurated. The march was organized to highlight women's issues and discontent with the rhetoric of Trump’s presidential campaign. Pink "pussy hats” became an icon of the movement in reference to a recorded 2005 conversation with Trump who made a comment about grabbing women by their genitals. The hats were styled with corners like cat ears playing on the word "pussy."
