Chelsea Handler is angry, she's determined, and she's going to show it in Park City.
The comedian and talk-show host will serve as emcee at the Women's March on Main, a march and rally set for Saturday morning in Park City — one of many events nationwide, coordinated as a protest to the inauguration of Donald Trump on Friday.
The march in Park City is expected to draw hundreds of protesters, many of them attendees of the 2017 Sundance Film Festival. The march is not affiliated with Sundance.
In a guest column posted this morning on The Hollywood Reporter's website, Handler wrote about the issues she hopes to emphasize — and reproductive rights are at the top of the list.
"Women are under a right-wing political assault, and I intend to fight back with all my might against a Republican president, a Republican Congress, and the radical, religious right who are drooling to defund Planned Parenthood health services nationwide," Handler wrote.
Handler wrote that she hopes the 200 marches planned in response to Trump will "teach our Predator-In-Chief a lesson that he can't do anything he wants, and that he can't trample all over the rights of America's 162 million women and girls."
