And now is the time to undertake the task of bringing us together as one voice for those who have no voice, as the power of our voice as one, is the key to our success. We need to be a growing army on the march, and we now have enough numbers to start marching. Below is a list of the 31 groups, both small and nation wide, currently professing support for this march, and a countless number of individuals could also be included if time allowed. And more are coming.
