CLEVELAND, Ohio- Women in Cleveland  and Northeast Ohio will take to the streets in Cleveland on Saturday, Jan. 21, 2023  for Women's March Cleveland's sixth-year anniversary and to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Roe Wade, one of several sister marches nationwide the weekend of Jan 21.

(The event contact tel is (216) 659-0473).

The event will be gin with a 12:30 pm rally and march at Market Square Park at W. 25th Street and Lorain Avenue in the city's Ohio City neighborhood, and across from the Westside Market near downtown Cleveland. A 1:30pm march will follow. A march that Women's March Cleveland hosted at Market Square Park in October of 2021 for reproductive rights drew roughly 2,500 people and though Saturday's upcoming march will be smaller like other cities nationwide that are also holding sister rallies and marches to celebrate the anniversary of the now defunct Roe v Wade, it will draw a decent crowd, organizers said, and will be one of the largest sister marches nationwide this weekend.

Organizers said that hundreds are expected. The women say that they are marching for reproductive rights and abortion access, voting and Civil Rights, and to seek to eradicate violence against women Also at issue, they say, are jobs, educational equity, adequate housing and healthcare, equal pay, and the continual fight against racism, sexism, and bigotry.

"We will fight against attempts to erase decades of constitutional protections for women and girls," said Women's March Cleveland head organizer Kathy Wray Coleman on the Facebook event page , which also reveals that Cleveland is slated to host one of the largest sister marches in the country the weekend of Jan. 21.

Women's March Cleveland has enlisted a coalition of other activist and women's rights groups of greater Cleveland  for the event, including Ohio Physicians for Reproductive Rights, Laura Cowan Foundation, Red, Wine and Blue, Black Women's PAC of Ohio, Carl Stokes Brigade, Black Women's Army, Greater Cleveland Alliance of Black School Educators, League of Women Voters East Cleveland Chapter, Journey Center for Safety and Healing ( Domestic Violence Center in Cleveland) Cuyahoga Democratic Women's Caucus, Black on Black Crime Inc. and Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights.

A grassroots women's rights group comprised primarily of greater Cleveland activist women and first established in 2017 when thousands of women in Cleveland and millions as a whole in sister cities nationwide marched in the streets in their respective cities following then president Donald Trump's inauguration, one of the largest single day marches in American history, Women's March Cleveland has over 4,600 members and in addition to an anniversary march in January of each years it hosts intermittent marches, many of them sister marches with other cities on women's rights The issues they fight for, practically all of them public policy matters impacting women, also include poverty, excessive force, and the nation's intrinsically racist legal system.

But reproductive rights have also become a central premise of the organization, along with rape, murder and other heinous violence against women in the largely Black major American city of Cleveland, a disproportionate number of the victims Black, Hispanic, and poor.

According to organizers, Saturday's march in Cleveland is also a march against the reinstatement of the heartbeat bill in Ohio, a six week abortion ban and state law that took effect after the U.S. The Supreme Court, on June 24, 2022 overturned Roe v Wade and relegated the authority to restrict or outright outlaw abortion to the respective state legislatures nationwide. The  state law is temporarily on hold per the ruling of a Hamilton County judge and as lawsuits over the measure make their way through the courts.

Women's rights remain under attack in Ohio and elsewhere, Women’s March Cleveland organizers told clevelandurbannews.com and kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com, Ohio’s Black digital news leader.

“We also call for a ceasefire on murder and other violence against Cleveland and greater Cleveland women that disproportionately impacts Black women and other women of color," Women's March Cleveland organizers said. "We support all women and we believe in inclusion across racial, ethnic, religious, gender, socioeconomic and other lines. We are true grassroots activists and we are not owned by the establishment or government or corporate interests."

CALABASAS-, California-Lisa Marie Presley, a singer, songwriter and humanitarian and the only daughter of the late rock and roll pioneer Elvis Presley and his wife Priscilla Presley, is dead at 54. The younger Presley was also an ex-wife of the late pop music icon Michael Jackson, and was once married to actor Nicholas Cage.

“It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us,” Priscilla Presley, 77, said in a statement. “She was the most passionate, strong and loving woman I have ever known.”

Specifics regarding Lisa Marie Presley's death have not been made public other than that paramedics were rushed to her home in Calabasas, Calif., on Thursday morning. She later died at a nearby hospital just 20 days shy of her 55th birthday

The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department confirmed to PEOPLE that paramedics responded to the 5900 block of Normandy drive in Calabasas to treat a woman in her 50s who was not breathing. When they arrived, the paramedics began CPR and, upon noting the patient had "signs of life," transferred the woman to a local hospital for "immediate medical care."

Elvis and Priscilla Presley separated in 1972 when their daughter was four years old, and the younger Presley was only nine when her father died in 1977. Married and divorced four times, Lisa Marie Presley leaves behind three children, twins and talented actress Riley Keough, 33, an actress in her own right. A son, Benjamin Keough, Riley Keough's younger brother and whose father was Presley's first husband, musician Danny Keough, preceded his mother in death, dying in 2020 at 27-years old of suicide.

Lisa Marie will buried at Graceland where her father Elvis and son Bejamin Keough are burried
