Hundreds Rally in Boston for ‘Day Without Women’

BOSTON — Hundreds of people gathered in Downtown Crossing on Wednesday evening in support of the Day Without Women Rally, one of many such events that took place across the country on International Women's Day.

Following the momentum of the Women's Marches held the day after President Donald Trump's inauguration, collaborators designated March 8 as a "Day Without Women," in which women were asked to temporarily strike from working or shopping to emphasize the role that they play in their economies.
