The organization also dug into the glory of protest, using their newfound celebrity and social media feeds to make noise about the issues that they felt needed to be at the forefront of the new movement: They planned A Day Without A Woman, a strike on International Women's Day, aligning with the leftist International Women's Strike anti-establishment platform, hit the streets on May Day with the Black Lives Matter coalition, Beyond The Moment, and in July, after the National Rifle Association released a scaremongering, racially charged ad, they organized an 22018-mile walk from NRA headquarters to the Department of Justice to protest police brutality and gun violence and demand action on gun control.
