On Twitter,Bawdy Tales of Edo: Octopus & Sea Shell you won’t scroll for long before you see the hashtags #WeBelieveSurvivors, #CancelKavanaugh, and #BelieveChristine. They are notes of solidarity directed toward Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, one of the women who has come forward with sexual assault allegations concerning Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh. On Thursday, Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee about those allegations.
In addition to the support on social media, people have gathered for demonstrations nationwide. In Washington D.C., the day began with a Women's March Rally in front of the Supreme Court and solidarity circles inside a Senate building office building.

“Today is the day we say enough is enough! Sexual violence has no place in our society. Not in Hollywood. Not in domestic work. And not in the highest court in the land. Brett Kavanaugh should withdraw now,” Daniela Contreras, a sexual assault survivor and organizer with the National Domestic Workers Alliance, said in a statement.

Many wore black to show solidarity -- the Women's March instructed protesters to do so on their website called cancelkavanaugh.com, which gives protesters and activists the tools and resources to try and stop Kavanaugh’s confirmation. Protesters also wore black on Monday during the Time's Up walkouts honoring Ford.
Actress and #MeToo activist Alyssa Milano attended the hearing, as did Democratic Sen. Tammy Duckworth, who brought her 5-month-old daughter.

One of the leaders of the #MeToo movement, Tarana Burke, was, according to CNN, also in the room as Ford testified. She wore a handmade sticker that said, "Believe women."
The mandate was echoed throughout Thursday's demonstrations.
