Audrey Huynh : Interview for Stanford Community Women's March Oral History Project
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
<html>Audrey Huynh (2019 BA International Relations) discusses her experiences surrounding the women’s marches that took place in January 2017. Huynh recalls an early interest in women’s issues, which she attributes to the book Half the Sky. She describes feeling a connection to the stories of women of color in the book, especially those of Vietnamese descent like herself.
Huynh describes her involvement with the Women’s Community Center at Stanford and the steps she and her friends took to prepare for the Women’s March, including making signs. Huynh, who attended the marches in both Oakland and San Francisco, offers a comparative perspective on the marches and recalls how inspiring it was to see women from multiple generations and backgrounds marching together. She describes the actions she took after the march, including the frustrating experience of telephoning representatives from her home state of North Carolina to express her opinion on cabinet appointments and upcoming votes.</html>
