- Description:
- Kate Woeber was born in Buffalo, N.Y. in 1970. She lives in Smyrna, Ga., with her husband and two children. Woeber works as a midwife and instructor of midwifery at Emory University. On January 21, 2017, millions of people worldwide took part in marches to protest the inauguration of Donald Trump as the President of the United States. The first protest, which took place in Washington, D.C., was known as the Women's March on Washington and was intended as a response to anti-woman rhetoric and beliefs that were espoused during Trump's campaign. While women's and reproductive rights were at the forefront of marchers' concerns, many also protested the racist, anti-immigrant, anti-science, and other controversial sentiments expressed by the incoming Trump administration.
In this interview, Kate Woeber talks about her experience attending the Women's March on Washington with a group of friends. She discusses her career as a midwife, her family's and her own political views, and her concerns for life under the Trump administration. - Metadata URL:
