Whereas elements of Friday's Presidential Inauguration appeared like they got here straight out of a movie (just like the political regime shift portrayed within the third Star Wars prequel, Revenge of the Sith), right now's marches in protest of now-President Donald Trump have reminded lots of a unique (and method higher) entry within the Star Wars saga: Episode IV: A New Hope.
As ladies march in cities all over the world, they've channeled the rebellious spirit of Princess Basic Leia Organa, the character portrayed by the legendary, recently departed Carrie Fisher.Â
The indicators emphasize the rebellious nature of the character and in addition match with Fisher's life as an advocate for psychological well being and proponent of girls's rights.Â
The lightsaber vigils that popped up after Fisher's dying final month have been a pleasant tribute. However utilizing the actress as an emblem for a motion advocating equality and guarding towards authoritarianism is probably probably the most becoming solution to keep on her legacy.
