While parts of Friday's Presidential Inauguration seemed like they came straight out of a movie (like the political regime shift portrayed in the third Star Wars prequel,Detective Archives Revenge of the Sith),today's marches in protest of now-President Donald Trump have reminded many of a different (and way better) entry in the Star Warssaga: Episode IV: A New Hope.
As women march in cities around the world, they've channeled the rebellious spirit of PrincessGeneral Leia Organa, the character portrayed by the legendary, recently departed Carrie Fisher.
The signs emphasize the rebellious nature of the character and also fit with Fisher's life as an advocate for mental health and proponent of women's rights.

She was glowing. Pass on your light to the next gen. #womensmarch pic.twitter.com/CAglLWrb8H
The lightsaber vigils that popped up after Fisher's death last month were a nice tribute. But using the actress as an emblem for a movement advocating equality and guarding against authoritarianism is perhaps the most fitting way to carry on her legacy.
